New Application Requirements
We have implemented improvements to our permitting process to better serve you with a new Public Permit Portal.
The Public Permit Portal will enable you to remotely submit permit applications and electronic plans, pay fees, track progress, complete permit issuance, schedule and receive inspection results, and more, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You must be registered to request inspections for your permit in the OpenGov portal.
The City invites you to register and utilize the Public Permit Portal powered by OpenGov. Begin streamlining your projects without visiting City Hall, waiting in lines for service, or printing paper plans, saving you time and money.
Please apply for your permit here:

The phone & email system for scheduling inspections for new permits, applications dated after April 29, 2022, has been replaced by the Permit Portal.
Legacy permits (before the new Public Portal) can still be scheduled through our website at
