Simply put, it is usually possible to get a building permit without addressing these items and the ‘standard procedure’ is to defer the design and construction coordination to the utility and the contractors after making ‘standard’ provisions or utilizing existing services. As development has shifted to infill and re-development, lenders and investors have had negative results from not addressing these items up front. Addressing variable and at time subjective utility company requirements, even if absurd, will be more time consuming, costly and may dramatically impact a buildings marketability if done after the fact.
