Edilizia privata
The Division is dedicated to the review of building applications and the management and supervision of construction sites.
Director: Sandro Montorfani
The Divisione Edilizia privata (Private Construction Division) manages all building procedures concerning private and public plots within the municipal area. It handles the issuance of building suitability certificates for plots, building parameter verification for parcels, structural suitability of public establishments, and more.
The Divisione Edilizia privata works closely with the Divisions Spazi urbani (Urban Spaces), Pianificazione, ambiente e mobilità (Planning, Environment and Mobility) and with the Police on issues related to construction sites. Its activities are divided into two main sectors: the first dedicated to reviewing building applications, and the second focused on managing and supervising construction sites. The latter also oversees emissions control for combustion systems within the municipal territory.
