How to schedule

Inspections are requested through the building department below.

Address
7501 E. Skoog Blvd. (Civic Center), Prescott Valley, AZ 86314
Phone
928-759-3050 (Development Services main); 928-759-5535 (Permitting); 928-759-3060 (Inspection scheduling/IVR)
Office hours
Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. (Development Services Counter payment window 8 a.m. - 4 p.m.; permit pickup 8 a.m. - 5 p.m.). Applications are submitted through the Town's GoPost ePlan online portal (gopost-prescottvalley.eplansoftreview.com); walk-in/paper submittal is not the standard path.

Published scheduling rules

  • Unlike a standard renovation permit, some demolition projects require the Town to schedule and complete an inspection BEFORE work starts — confirm with the permitting counter (928-759-5535) whether your project requires a pre-demolition inspection. (Demolition Permit)
  • In some cases, an inspection must be scheduled BEFORE demolition work begins rather than only after completion (Demolition Permit)
  • Contact information across the Town's own permit-application PDFs consistently lists 7501 E. Skoog Blvd. (Civic Center), phone 928-759-3050 (Development Services main) / 928-759-5535 (Permitting) / 928-759-3060 (IVR inspection scheduling), and email permitting@prescottvalley-az.gov / devserv@prescottvalley-az.gov — this differs from the 2025 AZBO Directory's listed 'Civic Circle' address and '928-759-3054' phone number, which appear to be stale; the Town's own live-site documents were treated as authoritative.
