Commercial Permitting Technician III
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions). Also remove "Please apply by: 10/24/26" (application instruction). Also remove "Follow your calling, Find your career" maybe tagline? That's not substantive? Might be considered boilerplate. Remove.
We need to extract sections: About the role (maybe the introductory paragraph about Mecklenburg County, LUESA). Responsibilities (Essential Functions list). Requirements (Experience, Education, Licenses and Certifications). Qualifications maybe same as Requirements? Could combine. Skills (Knowledge, Skills And Abilities). Benefits? Not explicitly stated. Pay: Salary Range: Starting at $34/hourly, plus note about pay rates based on education etc. So we can include Pay section with that info. Schedule? Not mentioned. Benefits? Not mentioned. So we only include sections with content: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications (maybe combine), Skills, Pay.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Pay section we have actual salary range. Good.
We need to use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive info. Let's parse.
Introductory text: "At Mecklenburg County, you’ll have the chance to build a career as unique as you are with support, inclusive culture and technology to become the best version of you. We’re counting on YOUR unique voice and perspective to help Mecklenburg County become even better, too. Join us and build an exceptional experience for yourself, and a better working world for all. Working at Mecklenburg County for LUESA, (Land Use and Environmental Service Agency) you will help to provide key services that will contribute to an exceptional quality of life for Mecklenburg County residents. LUESA’s responsibilities range from enforcing building and zoning codes to managing water and air resources for future generations. Working with LUESA provides an opportunity to partner with some of the most creative minds and inspiring leaders. If you are interested in working for a collaborative team that is driven by success and innovation you have found the right organization. We welcome talented, high-energy, fun team members to partner with our community to enhance our quality of life through environmental stewardship and economic vitality."
That's about the role/organization. We'll put under
About the role
with paragraphs.
Next: Position Summary: "Perform complex paraprofessional work in support of engineering or project management activities. This position, under general supervision, is responsible for reviewing construction drawings for minimum requirements and passing the plans to the Plan Reviewers in a timely manner. This role will also require exceptional communication and interpersonal skills to effectively address customer inquiries regarding permit and code information."
That could be part of Responsibilities or About the role. But we have Essential Functions list after. We'll treat Position Summary as part of About the role maybe. But we can also include under Responsibilities. However we need to avoid duplication. Let's put Position Summary under About the role as prose.
Then Essential Functions list: many bullet-like sentences each starting with a verb. We'll make a - list.
List items:
- Support the Permit Technician I and II duties
- Ensure plans submitted for Commercial Plan Review meet minimum submittal guidelines and formatting
- Provides final acceptance of plans to be submitted for plan review
- Educate customers and employees on processes to submit plans
- Apply local ordinances, design specifications, standards manual, etc. to private construction projects to ensure adequate infrastructure is constructed with minimal impact to the environment
- Conduct needs assessments
- Administer project related contracts
- Enforce local land use regulations
- Gather and compile information for contractors
- Interview customers to determine project requirements
- Write project specifications
- Analyze and resolve service requests
- Prepare cost estimates for project budgets
- Utilize a computer and specialized software applications and/or programs to generate reports, invoices, and/or maps
- Other duties as assigned
That's responsibilities.
Next: Experience Minimum Qualifications: "Minimum of four years of progressively responsible experience in the area of assignment." That's a requirement.
Education: "Associate's degree in Engineering, Construction, Surveying, or Real Estate"
Combination of relevant education and relevant experience accepted?: Yes
Licenses and Certifications: "Requires a valid North Carolina or South Carolina Driver's License" and "Must obtain and maintain a Mecklenburg County Operator's Permit"
We'll put under
Requirements
with list.
Qualifications maybe same as Requirements? Could separate Qualifications as "Knowledge, Skills And Abilities" but that's separate. Actually the posting has a section "Knowledge, Skills And Abilities". That includes Knowledge, Skills, Abilities. We'll treat that as Skills section.
But we also have "Computer Skills" subsection under Knowledge, Skills And Abilities: "Proficient in various applicable computer programs, including Microsoft Office Suite". That's part of Skills.
Thus we can have Skills
with list.
We need to preserve all substantive info from Knowledge, Skills And Abilities: includes Knowledge (list), Skills (list), Abilities (list), Computer Skills.
We'll break into sublists maybe but still under Skills heading.
We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
Pay: "Salary Range: Starting at $34/hourly This is a non-exempt (hourly) position. Pay rates are based on education, skill, experience level and internal equity. Internal equity considerations include an assessment of the applicant’s salary history and qualifications in comparison to the market rate and requirements for the job."
We'll put under Pay
with prose.
Schedule: not present, so omit.
Benefits: not present, omit.
Now ensure we removed boilerplate: lines like "Follow your calling, Find your career", "Please apply by: 10/24/26", "No Reasonable Accommodations Statement", "Reasonable accommodations may be made...", "Disclaimer Statement", "Selection This classification has been identified as having a role in the development of ADA compliant technologies...", "Designated positions may be required to assist in emergency and/or disaster situations". Also "Work Environment Works in outdoor exposed to weather conditions". That's substantive? It describes work environment; could be included maybe under About the role or a separate section? There's no heading for Work Environment in allowed headings list, but we could incorporate into About the role as prose. It's substantive info about working outdoors. We'll keep it.
Also "Selection This classification has been identified as having a role in the development of ADA compliant technologies and for which the incumbent agrees to follow County policies to the best of their abilities in order to meet these obligations." That's somewhat about ADA compliance; could be included under About the role or maybe under Requirements? It's about selection. We'll keep as prose under About the role.
Now we need to ensure we don't duplicate lines. We'll craft HTML.
Structure:
