Additional Notice (2-Day or 5-Day)

While the majority of inspections require only one (1) day notice, some inspections require two (2) day notice and others require five (5) day notice. Two and five day notice is required for the coordination of multiple parties (such as laboratory staff, inspection staff, and contractor) primarily on road improvements, subdivisions, and sewer mains. Inspections requiring two or five day notice are indicated in the inspection code lists below.

The Sea Ranch: All Sea Ranch Inspections require a 5 Day notice.

When making an inspection request and the the inspection is a 2-day or 5-day notice inspection, you will be logged (on the next business day) as a “Request for an Appointment”. You will be contacted by staff at the telephone number you leave with your request on or after that date to schedule the actual inspection day and time.

Note: “Day notice” is “business days of notice” in all cases below. Therefore an inspection requiring five day notice requires five business days of notice.
