DallasNow Email Notification Delay
The City is currently experiencing delays with automated email notifications from DallasNow. Customers should check the DallasNow online portal for the most current status of their application or permit. The notification delay does not necessarily indicate a delay in application processing.​

  • Effective June 1, 2026: All commercial, residential, and multifamily projects must schedule plumbing and mechanical rough inspections together on the same day. Also, plumbing and mechanical final inspections must be scheduled together once the project is ready for final inspection.

    This requirement is being implemented to improve inspection efficiency, reduce duplicate site visits, and maximize available inspection resources. Due to current staffing shortages among plumbing and mechanical inspectors across all districts, coordinating these inspections will help ensure timely service and better allocation of inspection staff.
