Early Assistance Meeting Registration

City of Asheville

*** Staff is sill prioritizing Tropical Storm Helene related permits. If you are in need of a FAST meeting, please fill out that separate form. Fees for these meetings will be waived specifically for storm related projects. Please note that as our staff continues to work in and with the community, it is possible that some disciplines may not have staff available for these meetings. We will endeavor to have specific questions answered from these staff members and included in the meeting notes.***

What am I allowed to rebuild after the Flood?

If the cost to repair or rebuild the structure meets or exceeds 50% of the building’s pre-storm value (meeting the definition of a “substantially damaged building”), the building must be reconstructed to meet all of the requirements of the North Carolina Family of State Building Codes including those for construction within a flood hazard area per Section 1612 of the State Building Code
