Plan Review

If you are building a new food or pool/spa facility in Anchorage or remodeling an existing facility in Anchorage, you will need to submit plans for review. A plan review is also required when there are extensive changes to the menu at a food facility. Plans must be submitted and approved by our office prior to any construction. Cosmetologically​ facilities do not require a plan review.​ ​Please be aware that plan review applications may not be accepted after 3:00pm. ​​​

Further guidance on the plan review process and application forms are available below. If you have questions about plan review, please call our office at 907-343-4200.
