The North Carolina Building Code requires that buildings and racking/shelving systems installed therein conform to seismic code requirements and other pertinent code requirements. Based on the height of materials stored on shelving and the classifications of such materials, the North Carolina Fire Code classified certain installation "High Pile Combustible Storage". To ensure code compliance and safety, the department reviews plans on such buildings and shelving systems prior to issuance of permits for construction.

Code Enforcement Publications

Mecklenburg County Code Enforcement has implemented a Residential Master Plan Submittal Process. The process utilizes the same system for our permitting and inspections, and works like the custom plan submittal process.

This is a comprehensive list of forms used by Code Enforcement, along with  commonly used forms from some of our partner agencies. For help with which forms are required, please contact your plans coordinator or our Customer Service Center at 980-314-CODE.
