Permit site plan details

What Is Included in a Permit Site Plan?

A useful site plan makes it clear what exists, what is changing and how a proposed project fits its property. The exact information depends on the permit checklist, zoning code and available source documents.

  • Property boundaries and lot dimensions
  • Existing buildings and improvements
  • Proposed construction and dimensions
  • Setbacks and access locations
  • Driveways, patios and walkways as needed
  • Utilities, septic or drainage where required
  • Easements and applicable zoning notes
  • North arrow, drawing scale and labels

Deliverables

What You Receive When
Your Plans Are Ready

We provide drawing deliverables for the particular service you purchase. Before starting, the scope should identify which sheets, source information, file formats and additional coordination are included.

  • Clearly identified existing and proposed conditions
  • Dimensions, labels and notes relevant to the agreed scope
  • Scaled PDF permit drawing sheets
  • DWG files or additional drawing sheets when included
  • Reasonable correction support within the original scope
  • Professional review coordination if required and accepted

A permit drawing package is not itself a permit approval. Survey and licensed professional services are separate when required.

How we work

A Simple Process From Project Details to Drawings

You do not need to understand every permit requirement before contacting us. We help organize the drafting scope from the information you have.

1

Share the project

Send the property address, project type, survey or sketches, proposed dimensions and any city comments.

2

Confirm the drawing scope

We review the inputs, identify missing information and recommend the suitable drawing package.

3

Approve the proposal

Review the agreed drawings, delivery estimate, price and any professional coordination before work starts.

4

Receive and review

Receive the agreed drawing files and request reasonable drafting corrections within scope if needed.

Why work with us

A Practical, Clearer Way to Prepare Permit Drawings

We focus on project-specific information, understandable deliverables and direct communication instead of assuming every permit needs the same set of sheets.

Project-specific scope

We identify the requested drawing work before pricing instead of adding unrelated services.

02

Nationwide remote intake

Share property information and drawings remotely, with jurisdiction-specific requirements reviewed as needed.

03

Clear drawing packages

Know what sheets and formats are included before the drafting work begins.

04

Corrections and coordination

Reasonable within-scope corrections and licensed professional coordination can be discussed when needed.

About our company

A Permit Drawing Team Focused on Your Project

Permit Site Plan provides residential and commercial drafting support through Site Plans LLC. We work with homeowners, contractors and property professionals who need clear drawings for property improvements and construction permit applications.

Our role starts by understanding your property, the proposed work, the documents available and the scope requested by your city or county. When separate surveying or licensed design services are required, those responsibilities must be addressed as part of the project plan.

Site Plan Drafting Across the United States

We support remote residential and commercial drafting requests from across the country. Each permit authority has different rules for surveys, coverage, drainage, setbacks and licensed signatures.

Use our state and city pages to explore relevant local project guidance, then provide the exact address so requirements can be confirmed.

Local rules matter

  • Confirm your city or county permit office
  • Check the current zoning and site plan checklist
  • Verify survey and setback requirements

We do not treat requirements from one municipality as national requirements.

Frequently asked questions

Answers to Common Permit Drawing Questions

Check the individual service page for detailed scope information, or ask us about the requirements for your exact address.

What is a site plan for a permit?

A site plan is a scaled drawing that locates the property boundaries, existing conditions, proposed improvements and applicable dimensions. The drawings required vary by project and local reviewing authority.

Do I need a boundary survey before ordering?

A current survey is the preferred source for reliable boundaries, existing structures and easements. Some projects may use an accepted plat or available measurements, but we will confirm whether a survey is necessary before finalizing the drawing scope.

How much does a site plan cost?

Our currently advertised starting prices are $99 for a basic plot plan, $199 for a standard site plan and $299 for a detailed site plan. These are starting prices; a custom scope or professional services may change the quote.

How long does it take to prepare a permit site plan?

Timing depends on project complexity, the condition of the supplied information and review requirements. We confirm a realistic delivery estimate after reviewing your address, scope and available documents.

Can you prepare plans for my city or county?

We work remotely with projects across the United States. Each city and county has different requirements, so we check the requested drawing scope and identify local items that may need separate documentation.

Do you provide professional engineer stamps?

Where required, we can coordinate review with an appropriately licensed professional. Any signature or seal is subject to that professional's independent review and acceptance; it is not automatic.

Are revisions included?

Reasonable corrections within the originally agreed drafting scope can be supported as specified in your proposal. Design changes, missing surveying or unrelated new requirements may be additional scope.

Can you revise a rejected or returned permit drawing?

Yes. Send the plan examiner's comments and the latest submitted drawings. We can identify relevant drafting corrections and separately flag items needing a surveyor, engineer, architect or other professional.

What files do I receive?

Depending on the agreed package, deliverables may include a scaled PDF site plan, additional permit drawing sheets and DWG files when included in the quoted scope. Confirm the deliverable list before placing an order.

Can I order drawings for an ADU, pool, deck or commercial project?

Yes. The required drawing package depends on whether the project involves only site placement or also architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing or code-compliance documents.
