Construction Services Pre-Review MeetingsConstruction Services’ preliminary review meetings are a free service provided to architects, engineers, owners, builders and others in the development community as an opportunity to introduce projects to Construction Services, Zoning, Fire Marshal and other city staff. These meetings are a chance for questions and clarifications regarding code requirements and presentation of reasoning for alternate methods or modifications and for requests for code interpretations. If you need a meeting that is primarily focused on stormwater management requirements, utilities or streets, contact Engineering at (218) 730-5200. If you need a meeting primarily focused on UDC (zoning) issues or you need to schedule a Planning pre-application meeting, contact Planning at (218) 730-5580. Designers can meet with plan review staff to review big-picture issues and address areas of specific concern at an early stage. Preliminary review meetings are not a replacement for a detailed review of final plans, but if conducted in advance of completing the construction documents, can reduce time required to address major issues discovered during final plan review. Preliminary review meetings are available on Wednesdays. To schedule a meeting, complete the form on page two of this publication and email it and items listed on the form to a plans examiner in Construction Services:
The deadline to request a meeting is the Friday of the previous week. When the complete request form and other information is received, you will be offered available meeting times. Commercial Energy Code ComplianceCommercial and multi-family residential buildings (except low-rise residential) must comply with Minnesota's Commercial Energy Code, Minnesota Rules Chapter 1323, which adopts and amends ASHRAE Standard 90.1-2004. Compliance with Minnesota's Commercial Energy Code can be demonstrated using IECC ComCheck 2009 at http://www.energycodes.gov/comcheck.
