The City is making every effort to make the transition to the new online and back office permitting software as seamless as possible. To complete this transition, please note the following:
- Online Portal Accounts: All existing customers will have to register for a new online portal account↗ before City staff can link your existing permits to your new account.
- Contact Registration: All contractors and trade contractors are required to create a Contact Registration account↗ that will be used to verify their professional and business license each year that will be searchable for all permit applications. This will replace the need for a notarized affidavit. Any other contact that is frequently used in permit applications may also register for a Contact Registration to simplify the permitting process for the applicant.
