Overview
Most permit types involve inspections, which in turn needs inspectors. Setting up inspectors is a simple process involving a single requirement—that the prospective inspector be set up as a Citywide user. That requirement can be met by a Permitting Admin user when setting up the Inspector account. Inspectors are classified solely by the inspection types along these broad divisions: Building Permits, Other Permits, and Licences. Their accounts can be enabled for any combination of these permitting types.
