Request to AutomateØ Currently, sign permits are a manual process, whereas
many of our other permitting streams have been automated.
Ø Requests have been made to automate this process so that:v Sign contractors can submit online sign applicationsv Once a permit is issued, a permit document is created
with remarks instructing the contractor to ‘Request Inspection’.q Inspection requests can be made for zoning (City of
Charlotte, Town of Huntersville, Town of Mint Hill, and the County Land Development inspector who handles the remaining towns, as well as for the building and electrical permits.

Automated Sign Permit Vision:Ø Create an online permit application process: A customer
dashboard to be provided to the contractors to be able to log in and apply for the permit. The online application to contain all the fields in the paper application. Once the application is complete, the system would provide a permit number and a submittal number. This does not mean issuance of the permit.
Ø Upload drawings pertaining to Sign Permit: Contractors would be able to upload supporting documents and plan drawings on the dashboard. The plan drawings once uploaded and submitted, the system would stop them from making any further changes or upload an updated drawing till the reviewer requests them. User would be able to up load other supporting documents at any time of the project
