Permit Desk Update
All Building and Engineering Permits have been moved to a Permit Desk in the Duke Street Vestibule at City Hall. The Permit office will be OPEN to the general public seeking permits Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Duke Street doors will be unlocked during this time and signage and stantions will direct traffic. Masks are required to enter City Hall. We are working toward online permitting for all City Permits – in the meantime, you are able to download and print paper copies. Those can be scanned/emailed, mailed or dropped off to reduce contact.
