COVID-19 UpdatesWhile City Hall is now partially open to the public, we still ask the public to move to electronic submissions for their Building Safety and Permitting needs. Download the Permitting During COVID-19 Closures flyer for more details. See the latest status of City Hall and other City programs and operations on the City's COVID-19 Closures and Cancellations page. |
June 9, 2022: Please note the counter will be closed and no inspections will be scheduled on Monday, June 20. City Government will be closed in honor of Juneteenth. Our office will be closed and no inspections will be scheduled on Wednesday, June 29. Our office closes on the last Wednesday of every month.
Reminder: The deadline to make any new submissions under the 2015 USBC is June 30, 2022. After that date, all submissions must comply with the 2018 USBC.
The counter has returned to standard operating hours, 8:00-5:00 daily. Staff working in City Hall remains limited, so there may still be limited service available, especially at the beginning and end of the day, across lunch hours, and if counter staff is reduced.
Please try to limit counter visits only to those things absolutely requiring them. Use e-mail whenever possible. We are now processing everything electronically.
Reduced Counter Staff
There may be days when only one person will be in the office. Please understand this will lead to reduced hours and the inability to process certain transactions. Specifically when one person is alone in the office:
