Pittsburgh, PA approves Accelerated Plan Reviews pilot for select permit applications

Pittsburgh, PA Acclerated Permit Plan Reviews Pilot

The pilot provides an expedited timeline for reviews of Commercial Fire Alarm and Fire Suppression permits. Applicants pay administrative fees equal to 1% of construction value for five-day reviews rather than the standard 30-day timeline. The fee covers the initial application review as well as a follow-up review in case of revisions or amendments. City officials are evaluating how the process impacts applicant satisfaction and building safety prior to broader adoption.
