“We will re-evaluate the closure by April 1 to determine a date to reopen the Permit Center to customers,” said Mike Curtis, Permit Center manager.

Permit Center staff currently is working on a way to use digital submittals as a way to keep business and permit processes moving during the time of closure.

”If you choose to upload your submittal documents please understand that we are working out a process for this review as we are not set up for this at this time. You are still able to make payments online and I encourage everyone to continue to check your online accounts for permit progress,” said Curtis.

This is a temporary closure to determine the best plan of action to continue submittal and issuance of building permits and submittal of land use, wetland/habitat and engineering applications.

This closure is only for the Permit Center at this time, building inspections will continue as normal until further notice.
