City of DetroitA Certificate of Occupancy (C of O) is the permission to occupy a building or space based on approved permits. The application is submitted to BSEED along with all permits associated with the project. The building permit applicant or licensed professional would apply for the C of O, not necessarily the property owner. The purpose of tracking this information is to verify that the completed project has been approved for occupancy.ArcGIS FeatureLayerhttps://hub.arcgis.com/datasets/0b5291df3d1c4b3693af5d4ca508030b_0engDetroit Open DataPublicCertificate of Occupancy [Michigan--Detroit]Web servicesMichigan--DetroitMichiganLast Modified: 2026-01-08
