Who acquires the permit?

A permit can be issued to either the homeowner or the shelter/safe room company/contractor, but both parties will need to be involved with the permit process.  The permit application requires information on construction, installation, zoning, and location. The City of Jenks permit processor may call the homeowner or shelter/safe room company to request more information.
