Utility Service Process Improvement

Changes have been made to streamline the Stub Permit Process. Customers wishing to obtain a stub permit to install new water or sewer to the existing City of Raleigh main can now apply at the same time as building or concurrent review. This saves on both time and paperwork.

Single parcel service connection can use the Permit Application to obtain both building and stub permits. Or the stub permit can be issued with concurrent review (which is Final Site and Infrastructure Construction plans review).

Multiple parcel connections can be issued with Concurrent Review prior to lot recordation with the use of the Utility Service Addendum.

Process change will be effective February 1, 2017 with a grace period until March 6, 2017.
