Applying Online

Address Information
To apply online, you will need a property address that matches our records. New addresses may take awhile to be added to the ePermitting system and may not be available right away for online permit purchases. If an address does not show up, please contact our office at (503) 623-9237 so we can determine the status of an address and whether or not it is in our jurisdiction.

License Information, Ownership, Project Description
You will be required to enter your contractor license information, project description, and permit selections. If the property owner information that shows up is different than the current property owner, please enter the correct property owner name in the project description. Also, for mechanical permit purchases, please include whether or not the permit qualifies for a new carbon monoxide source in the project description.

Limited Permit Services
Not all permit items are offered online. If you are applying for a permit item that is not listed on the application page, you will either need to apply in person at our office or by mail. Our office location and mailing address is 850 Main Street, Dallas, OR 97338. Google Map
