Purpose
The purpose of the Inspections Division is to enforce minimum building standards designed to protect public health, safety and general welfare. This goal of protecting the public interest is achieved by regulating the design, construction, occupancy and use of all buildings and structures.
The Inspections Division has created a Before You Build checklist to help make the plan review and permitting process as smooth as possible.
The 2015 Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code (USBC) is effective September 4, 2019.
