How long does Peoria plan review take?+
Review duration is controlled by the City of Peoria and depends on scope, submittal completeness and reviewer workload. AE does not promise a review or issuance timeline.
Does my HOA also need to approve?+
Private HOA/CC&R or ARC review, where it applies, is separate from municipal permitting. The customer confirms with the association whether a submittal is required for the property.
What inspections will I see?+
The inspections that apply are set by the City of Peoria for the permitted scope; the customer confirms the current list through the city's permitting portal. Where inspection coordination is currently offered, accepted and assigned to AE in the signed scope, AE coordinates that portion.
Do I need to be home for inspections?+
Access arrangements are project-specific. Where inspection coordination is assigned to AE in the signed scope, AE coordinates the portion assigned to it; the inspector's requirements control.
What about pool fence compliance?+
Pool barriers are reviewed against the code Peoria has adopted. Frameless glass is a common option that can be configured as a barrier when it is designed and installed to the requirements confirmed for the property.
