Choose the document for the question
Mount Pleasant’s document-request resource lists elevation certificates, site plans, certificates of occupancy and building permit/inspection files under Engineering and Development Services. Describe the question you need answered when asking which record is available for the property.
For example, an uncertain footprint calls for a different inquiry from a missing elevation reference or an unexplained earlier inspection. Write the address and relevant feature beside the request. A document’s title alone does not establish that its contents answer the question or describe the building as it stands today.
Carry the record into a bounded repair inquiry
Keep the record date and relevant page with photographs of the existing condition. Mark differences you cannot explain, such as a feature shown on a plan that appears different at the property. Ask staff about the mismatch before using the drawing to specify new work.
The town’s floodplain resource also directs repair and improvement questions to Building Inspection. If your proposal depends on floodplain information, bring that question to the town with the record reference. Keep the provider’s assessment of visible work alongside it; no property-specific flood or repair determination has been made here.
Is an elevation certificate the same record as a site plan?
The town lists them as separate record types. Explain whether your question concerns elevation information, the site layout or something else, and ask which available record is suitable.
Can an old permit file resolve current floodplain repair requirements?
An older file supplies history. Ask the town about current requirements for the address and proposed work rather than treating the file as a present floodplain determination or repair instruction.

For a rented home, confirm who can authorize alterations. In a shared building, ask about access and work rules. A citywide construction period does not establish the age, condition or safety requirements of an individual home; check the property records and the specific project.
