DPD has created a new Phased Permit webpage to describe phased permits, and a new application form to make it easier for you to request that your project be phased.
A phased permit allows you to submit your construction plans for a new building in multiple pieces. For example, you can submit plans for the foundation before you submit plans for the rest of the building. Your project may qualify for a phased permit if the building is new, the project is large or complex, and the construction value is greater than $5,000,000.
The new webpage also describes how to apply for a separate shoring and excavation permit. You can get a separate permit for shoring and excavation work without applying for a phased permit.
We have created new checklists to help you assemble your plans
