Demolition Permit Application

If yes, then:

• Submit pictures of each elevation of each building.
• JPG, JPEG and PNG are acceptable formats.

Removal of a septic system requires a separate demolition permit (from a main house or building).

Include a labeled site plan with your application showing size and use to determine whether separate permits will be required.

Site Plans are required when any of the following are true:

• Multiple buildings or structures on site will be removed
• Fuel tank is located within 5 feet of a foundation of a structure
• Non-structural fill will be greater than 6 inches below natural grade

Submit your site plan with your DMO Application Form.

The abandoned tank must be cleaned and then filled with slurry or other approved inert material (not sand).

• All excavations must be filled, and the site graded to a natural grade.
• If the fill material will not be placed as structural fill, the site plan and a non-structural fill letter must be recorded with the Clark County Auditor on the title of the property before the permit will be issued.

• Tanks over 10,000 gallons
• Commercial buildings 12,000 SF and larger
• Excavation of 500 cubic yards or more
