  3. If customer does not see the permit under the My Records header (perhaps because it was submitted before the City accepted online applications, or because customer was added to the project team after the record was originally submitted), please contact the Permit Team with all permit/account details in order to be retroactively associated to the record. Please include all relevant documentation of association with that record.
  4. Once on the individual record, customer clicks on Record Info, and then Attachments:
