Permit Office (AHJ)
City of Savannah Development Services
Chatham County · Georgia
MEP, structural, civil, and energy-compliance engineering for Savannah projects — permitted through City of Savannah Development Services and designed to the city's adopted codes and amendments.
Permit stuck waiting on a seal? Apex Grid's licensed engineers provide fast review-and-seal for drawings in Savannah and across Chatham County — reviewed under responsible charge and sealed for submittal to City of Savannah Development Services. Typical turnaround is 3–5 business days once we have a complete package.
Coordinated mechanical, electrical, and plumbing design — engineered as one system, stamped by licensed professionals, and documented for fast permit approval.
Structural systems designed to the loads your state actually imposes — gravity, seismic, wind, and snow — with drawings built to get approved the first time.
Site engineering that clears local review — grading, drainage, and utilities designed to each jurisdiction's published standards from day one.
Energy compliance handled as engineering, not paperwork — documentation matched to the exact code edition your permitting jurisdiction enforces.
Savannah applies Georgia's mandatory minimum codes with city administrative and floodplain requirements. Since January 1, 2025, new and substantially improved buildings in mapped or localized special flood-hazard areas must meet the city's two-foot freeboard requirement.
The Port of Savannah supports major logistics, warehouse, manufacturing, and infrastructure investment, while tourism, healthcare, and historic-building reinvestment sustain a diverse construction pipeline. Coastal and historic contexts add approval and resilience complexity.
Reviewed 2026-09-11. Code editions and local requirements can change; confirm the current requirements with the authority having jurisdiction before design.
Development Services reviews building and site-development permits within city jurisdiction. Commercial renovations require water and sewer approval before permit issuance, and applicants can use published checklists and building-plan-review meetings to resolve submittal issues.
