The Division reviews plans for all proposed new construction and alterations and conducts onsite inspections for conformity to established codes and County ordinances. The Division is also responsible for the issuance of Certificates of Competency to all construction trade workers within the County and verifying their conformity to State licensing requirements. Complaints regarding unlicensed contractors, unpermitted work, and substandard practices within the construction industry are investigated by the Division.
