CAM 337, Demolition Permits
|
| Demolition permits are required to remove structures, including accessory structures, with more than 120 square feet of "projected" roof area (including overhangs) as specified in the Seattle Building Code (SBC), Section 106. Demolition generally means removal of the entire structure, although in some cases the foundation may remain to stabilize a site.
A Master Use Permit (MUP) may be required when demolishing a structure and establishing a new use (particularly when the use is residential) and when various other factors apply, such as whether the structure is in a landmark district or over water. |
