OPR for Citizens: Intro to the Online Plan Review Process
This guide provides an overview of how the online plan review process works and what to expect after you submit a permit application.
Understanding the Process Flow
The OPR moves through several stages as town officials evaluate your documentation.
- Admin Review: Initial processing by the town. You cannot access the review while in this status.
- Initial Submission: The stage where you provide the required plans and documents.
- Prescreen Review: Officials check that all necessary items are present.
- Under Review: Detailed technical evaluation by town officials.
- Released: The plan review process is complete.
IMPORTANT
Plan Review Status vs. Permit Status: A status of "Released" means the review is finished, but it does not mean your permit is approved. Your town will notify you regarding your permit application status separately.
Getting Access
- Notification: You will receive an email notification from a town official when a review has been started.
- Portal Login: Use the link provided in your email to access the portal. You will need to sign in or create a portal account.
