The Central Permit Office (CPO) helps residents and businesses request permission for different types of projects in the city.

For example, the Central Permit Office helps:

  • Residents get permits for home improvement projects, like putting up a fence or building an addition
  • Businesses get licenses and improve and inspect their properties

Note that it can take time for us to process your permit application, depending on what you need.

Online Permitting Center

The city is actively moving its permitting process online to make the application process easier and more accessible to home and business owners.
