Deferred Submittals

Deferred Submittals are defined as portions of the design that are not submitted for review at the time of the initial permit application. Common deferred submittals include solar photovoltaic systems, prefabricated roof trusses, prefabricated stairs, and mechanical duct layout, to name a few.

Deferred submittals are submitted online utilizing the ePlan Review portal:
