Permitting Process Changes
Making Things Easier for Customers
We're simplifying the processes for Sign Permits and Fence/Wall/Retaining Wall Permits. Each will require a single application that will be routed internally to all relevant reviewers.

Two permits, for most signs:

A single application will be routed to all relevant reviewers.
