Commercial/Industrial Construction
- Site Approval and Review
All commercial and industrial construction projects shall
have a site approval that is granted from both the Planning and
Zoning Commission and the Village Board before application and
submittal to the Building Department (See Planning and Zoning
Web page for further information). For all commercial and
industrial projects four sets of construction plans and
specification books must be provided. These plans are then
distributed to our Public Works, the Minooka Fire Department,
and the Plumbing Inspector and to myself for review. Only one
set of structural calculations, landscaping details and signage
need to be submitted. After all of the reviews are completed one
set of review comments will be sent back to the architectural
firm who generated the set for revisions and clarification. Once
all comments are resolved and all contractors are licensed the
permit will be ready for release
- Special Inspections
Due to the nature of the construction of these buildings
there will be several special inspections that will be done
during the construction of these buildings. We will need to
have one set of each special inspection report that is done
for the project. These reports should be forwarded to our
office as soon as they become available. Failure to forward
these reports could cause a delay in the project until
everything is provided. Some examples of the special
inspections that we will need would include but are not
limited to steel, concrete and EIFS veneer.
- Occupancy
In order to obtain an occupancy permit for the building,
inspections must be completed and approved by the Minooka Fire Department, our Plumbing
Inspector, the Water Department and myself. Any outstanding work such as
landscaping, grading and fencing may be bonded with the Village of Minooka until such
work can be completed.
For all work that is not completed we will need to have an
estimate of the amount of money it will cost to complete the
work. We will then add 125% onto that amount for the amount
necessary to bond with the Village of Minooka. If a set of
as-built grading plans have been provided our Village Engineer
must approve them or a bond will need to be posted. In order to
have an approval on the as-builts provided it is suggested that
those grading plans be provided to the Village and the Village
Engineer at least four weeks before the intended occupancy of
the building.
Due to the complexity and the volume of inspections and
reviews the amount of time from submittal to permit issuance is
hard to determine. The time required to review the plans and
obtain comments from the architect of record usually is time
intensive and also gathering the comments from other parties may
extend the review time as well.
