Architect's Stamp is Vital to get your Certificate of Occupancy

Please make sure that the design professional you retain to draw your as-built plans prior to getting your Certificate of Occupancy, is a licensed architect in Arizona has the capacity to stamp the plans.  There are different individuals who can draw the as-built plans, but they are not licensed and cannot stamp the as-built plans.  The as-built plans will be worthless.  Believe it or not this happens.

There are two sets of plans necessary.  As-built plans are floor and site plans that the architect does of your existing building.  The final floor plan and site plan of what you want to do is a completely separate set of plans.  Both are presented at the same time in order the get a permit and call for inspections from the City of Phoenix before a Certificate of Occupancy can be issued.

If you have any questions or need help, I am happy to talk with you.    Please call Jerry Kadansky at 602-403-2500.   I am a licensed, bonded, commercial general contractor.  After our initial call, if necessary, my architect and I can sit down over a cup of coffee at talk with your about your project.
