Demolition Permit
Description:
Demolition permits ensure that the Quincy Preservation Commission,
Quincy Fire Department and the Inspection Office have reviewed a project
that is scheduled for demolition in order to protect public interest,
health, safety and welfare. After proper consideration by these parties
the demolition may be undertaken.
Application:
Demolition permit application forms and related
materials are available at the Department of Planning
and Development, Inspection Office located at 706
Maine Street, 3rd floor, City Hall Annex or on the
City’s website at www.quincyil.gov.
Requirement:
A demolition permit is required before starting any
demolition (residential, commercial or industrial.)
The owner, agent, or demolition contractor is required
to complete an application. Salvage permits are also
available.
Review of Application:
The Building Inspector and Fire Department will review
the submitted applications for compliance with Section
23.301 of the Code. The review can usually be
completed and the applicant notified within 3 to 5

However, if the project is located within a Historic
District it is subject to a review by the Preservation
Commission of 35 days.
