BLP2026-0757_PHDReview (002).pdf

This is a Pre-Construction Building and Land Permit (BLP) Review Form completed by the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare (PHD) staff for Bonner County, related to the State of Idaho Department of Lands' request for bids on a covered vehicle storage building at the Priest Lake Area Office. The project, identified as BLP2026-0757, involves construction of a covered parking structure on property located at 4053 Cavanaugh Bay Road, Coolin, Idaho (Parcel RP60N04W266001A). The form indicates the structure type is a covered parking structure rather than a single-family dwelling or other residential use, with plumbing noted as applicable per the BLP application. The review was completed on September 17, 2026, and identifies that the property falls within the Coolin Sewer District jurisdiction, placing it outside the PHD's jurisdictional authority for septic system evaluation. An optional pre-bid site visit is scheduled for September 24, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time, with bids due October 22, 2026, and project completion required by June 5, 2027.

The review form serves as a preliminary paperwork assessment only and does not constitute approval for construction or a septic system suitability determination. The form notes that landowners remain responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable Idaho subsurface sewage disposal rules (IDAPA 58.01.03) and must submit all required applications, fees, and supporting documentation to PHD if site work or additional permitting becomes necessary. The covered storage structure will include a 100-amp electrical service with a minimum 20-amp outlet, an insulated overhead door with electric opener, a pedestrian door, and a compacted gravel base, with optional add-ons including concrete flooring, LED lighting, spray-on urethane foam insulation, and upgraded roofing and siding materials. Contractor licensing requirements are value-dependent, ranging from Class D (projects valued $50,000–$200,000) to Class C (projects valued $200,000–$400,000), with a minimum five-year warranty on all materials and workmanship required.
