It is the City of Westwood's intent to ensure the safety of residents, their families and their guests through the permit system. The City of Westwood provides inspection services to the cities of Mission Woods and Westwood Hills. Permits are required for most work done in the three cities and some work may require review by the Planning Commission or an Architectural Review Board; however, most work (driveway replacement, roofing, siding replacement, electrical and plumbing updates, furnace and a/c replacements) can be reviewed by the Building Inspector and permits can be issued on the same day the application is received.
The City of Westwood provides building codes and inspection services to the cities of Westwood, Mission Woods and Westwood Hills.
Each city has specific and unique review processes - depending on the nature and extent of the proposed project. Please review the requirements and code provisions for the municipality where the project is proposed. Contact the Westwood Building Official with any questions.
