The City of Knoxville Plans Review & Inspections Department
promotes quality development and preserves neighborhood integrity and safety through plans review, permits, building inspections, and other regulatory activities.
We now offer
Citizen Access to Online Services for
permit applications,
inspections,
licensing,
plans review and
more.
Development in the City begins with your project vision for using a piece of property in the City limits. Bring your project idea to the City to confirm that your plans meet safety, sustainability, and zoning regulations. After plans are approved, you obtain the required permits and begin building the project. During the building process, you will go through inspections to make sure your project is successful and following regulations. Once the project is finished and all required inspections are passed, your project becomes an active part of development in the City of Knoxville!
