Solution

This permit evaluation system streamlines the application process for building construction and event permits by applying clear regulatory criteria. The system assesses applications across different zone types (residential, commercial, industrial) and event categories (indoor, outdoor), checking each against specific thresholds for approval.

For building permits, the system evaluates height restrictions, square footage limits, and safety scores based on zoning type. Residential applications must meet height limits of 35 feet, while commercial buildings face different standards up to 100 feet. For events, the system considers attendee counts and venue safety scores, with larger gatherings requiring additional management plans. Every application undergoes environmental impact assessment, with minimal impact applications fast-tracked while those with moderate or significant impact face additional requirements or potential denial. The system provides clear reasoning for all decisions, helping applicants understand next steps.

How it works

The decision graph processes permit applications through several connected evaluation stages:

  1. Application Classification: Identifies the application type (building or event) and categorizes by zone type (residential, commercial, industrial) or event location (indoor, outdoor).
  2. Initial Approval Check: Evaluates the application against zone-specific criteria including building height, square footage, and safety scores, assigning an initial status.
  3. Environmental Impact Assessment: Reviews the environmental impact level (minimal, moderate, significant) against the initial approval status.
  4. Final Determination: Combines all evaluations to produce a final status (Approved, Conditional, Denied, Pending) with detailed reasoning.
  5. Next Steps Assignment: Assigns appropriate follow-up processes based on the final determination, from standard approval to comprehensive review requirements.
