Land Use Encourages Social Distancing, Moves to Virtual Walk-In Services

In response to the Governor’s COVID-19 advisory, the City of Santa Fe will limit new construction permitting to a restricted list of permit types and support projects currently in the permitting and construction pipeline. For general questions, please email or call staff rather than visiting City Hall in person. Staff will be prepared to respond promptly to electronic inquiries from the public.

Starting today, Land Use will only be issuing the following permit types. Staff will continue to process and issue permit applications that are currently under review.

• Secondary permits (e.g., electrical, plumbing, mechanical).
• Re-roofing and roof repair permits.  We urge residents to only apply for these permits in urgent or emergency situations.
• Grading & Drainage and Landscape & Utility permits for commercial development only. This will allow new commercial projects to a begin working on horizontal grading and infrastructure.

We’ve also added some stanchions to the Land Use Lobby to help reinforce the CDC’s recommended physical separation, and to discourage unnecessary physical contact through handshakes or other displays of greeting.

Construction Inspections

Inspections will continue as usual until further notice. Inspections can be scheduled by calling our IVR system at 505-955-6110.
