A TAMA 38/2 project is highly complex, consisting of numerous milestones, starting from the information file and ending with the long-awaited Form 4.
In the initial licensing phase, most projects require preliminary tests, such as topographic surveys, non-destructive testing (seismic resistance), water network characterization, trial drilling, soil reports, and tree surveys.
Following or concurrent with the completion of preliminary tests, various project consultants must be appointed, such as structural engineers, traffic consultants, HVAC consultants, electrical engineers, plumbing consultants, and more. Each consultant plays an integral role in shaping the permit application plan, so it is essential to emphasize the experience and professionalism they bring, as this will ultimately be reflected in the work process and ensure a high-quality project. You can actually see their contribution in the smallest details—you wake up in the morning, get the kids ready for another routine day of school, head down to the parking garage, and once again find yourself struggling to maneuver your car toward the exit. A good traffic consultant will know in advance how to maximize the site's potential, allowing you, the residents, to save precious time in the morning without unnecessary headaches—that is their job.
Parallel to appointing the consultants, you must obtain an information file from the municipality. The information file combines input from all relevant parties and authorities involved in the project, including the electric company, the water corporation, and various municipal departments related to traffic, infrastructure, and sewage. Each of these entities provides their requirements in the information file, which serves as a guidebook for the developer to begin advancing the project.
Once the permit application plan is finalized, it is submitted to the supervisor and the owners for approval and signatures on the full "Garmushka" (the permit application plan).
After verifying that the permit application has been successfully uploaded to the municipality's online system, the next step is to be scheduled for a committee hearing, followed by the committee's decision, also known as a "conditional permit."
Following the decision, the conditions must be met to receive the permit, including the payment of fees and levies.
Once the above is completed, the long-awaited building permit is expected to be issued!
A tip from us
Managing and advancing the licensing phase with various parties requires great skill and professionalism. Ensure that the development company has a team specifically responsible for this! They should be involved in every small detail, communicating with the various authorities to obtain the necessary approvals, and working ambitiously to shorten the building permit approval time as much as possible. Maintaining a high standard of planning and execution throughout the process is essential. A simple example of this is the professional team choosing to use an improved reinforced security room (Mamad) door to allow for maximum planning flexibility within the apartment. Another example is guiding the client (in this case, the residents) not to rely solely on aesthetics but also to consider functionality with a long-term perspective—for instance, we would prefer not to include floor-to-ceiling windows in bedrooms where the room's proportions would not allow for practical furniture placement.
