PJM_additional service question

[whuang]

Hi ARE community,

One simple question, if the drawings from architect has been rejected by government authority when apply for permit and have to modified, will that counted as additional service?

Thank you!

Hi @whuang ! That’s a great question, @coachjasongolub could you answer this one?

@whuang No that won’t normally be considered an additional service. The expectation is that an architect knows what is required to get drawings approved for permit, and if they are not approved, then it’s on the architect to fix the errors. Also, the architect usually knows to include some back and forth with the government authority in their fees.
