Final inspection / DOT sign-off

Permits, Licensing & Regulatory Approvals
Final inspection / DOT sign-off The concluding DOT review confirming completed sidewalk or street work meets city specifications, after which the permit is formally closed.

This is functionally the same review used for a dismissal inspection when the work was tied to a violation, but it also applies to new sidewalk installations or repairs done without a prior citation, where the owner or contractor still needs DOT's confirmation that the job was done to spec. Without this sign-off, a permit can remain technically open even if the concrete looks finished, which can create complications during a future sale or additional permitting. Scheduling this step promptly after work wraps up is standard practice for any reputable contractor.
