How long does it take to get a permit?

Some permits, such as miscellaneous plumbing, and mechanical permits, can be issued over-the-counter or as soon as fees are paid. The time required to obtain permits other than the over-the-counter permits varies with the plan reviewer's workload. You can call the Permitting center and inquire about the approximate review time for specific types of projects.
