Payments may be made online, via a credit card or e-check -- *please note, there is an additional fee for online payments.  Payments can also be made in person via check or cash at no additional charge in room 100.

Please Note: 

We require all of the above to process an application for a permit. If you do not have all of the above when you apply online, this will delay our review of your permit application.  Payment for permits comes after we have processed the initial intake(all documentation is correct), checked for back taxes, Building Department Review that is done by the Building Official and passes his review.  Once you are able to pay for your permit, your permit will automatically issue through our online permit system.    

Each permit type (building, electrical, HVAC, plumbing, etc.) is processed separately. We do not issue "blanket permits."
