LOCAL RESEARCH / Saratoga
Planning your work
Saratoga states that an owner or authorized agent intending to alter or repair a building must first apply to the building official, and lists window or door changes involving structural framing, and water heater or HVAC replacements, among the work that needs a permit. Confirm the address, the proposed scope and which permits apply with the City of Saratoga before work starts. This reference concerns the City of Saratoga; it does not establish requirements for a neighbouring jurisdiction or for an individual property.
