Building permit services for Celina and Clay County are now under one roof.
Codes and Building Inspector Anthony Blakely said he moved the office from Guffey Street to 112 West Lake Avenue.
“I’ve got the lounge and everything set up for that,” Blakely said. “As far as the books, the books are maintained differently. I’ve got the county on one side and the city on the other side. It just saves me from having to go to one building to another building.”
Blakely said he has extended hours to Tuesday and Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Blakely said he eventually wants to open on Friday, as well. Blakely said before he was hired, the office was only open eight hours a week.
Blakely said he has also added out-of-state building permits to services available at the office. Blakely was hired by the city and county about four weeks ago.
