Add/Update a Contractor on a Building Permit

Do you need to update, change, or add a contractor to your building permit? This may apply to an application in-progress or a pulled permit. This process  

This task can only be done once a building permit application has been initiated and/or approved, as you will need a process number for your project to make any changes. 

NOTE: This process is also how you add a specialist for sub-permits (i.e. electrical, plumbing, etc.).
