Field impact

What matters on a fire alarm project

  • Use the city’s current fee page for the project value rather than carrying a historical flat allowance.
  • Fire Department plan review is specifically identified for commercial and 3+ family projects.
  • Confirm the exact fire-alarm plan package and inspection scheduling with the Fire Marshal before final submission.
