Other tips

Operating in multiple jurisdictions?

  • Please note: If your company operates in multiple jurisdictions, you may have Company Admin permissions in some jurisdictions but not all. If you do not have Company Admin permissions in a specific jurisdiction but need them, please contact the building department you are working with to request access.

Working with clients?

  • Please let your clients know that they can contact the building department they are working with to get set up with a Community Member profile. This will give them access to their permits through CommunityConnect.
