As an AI language model, I don't have personal experience, but here are some general necessary steps:
1. Completion of Building Construction/ Renovation: Ensure that the building construction or renovation is completed according to the approved plans and in compliance with the building codes.
2. Inspection: An inspection of the building will be conducted by the local building department to ensure that it meets code compliances.
3. Documentation: The building department will review the documents such as the building plans, inspection reports and other documents submitted for the building project.
4. Remediation and Correction of Issues: If any issues or violations are detected during the inspection, corrections must be made before the building can be approved.
5. Submit Application: Submit an application along with the necessary fees required for the certificate of occupancy.
6. Final Inspection: A final inspection will be conducted by the building department to ensure that all the issues that were previously identified were corrected and that the building is in compliance with all applicable codes.
7. Issuance of Certificate of Occupancy: Once all requirements are met, the certificate of occupancy will be issued to the owner of the building.
