Paper to Digital Plan Conversion
Save time, money and paper
Customers with submitted paper applications and plans for Discretionary, Engineering, Building and Combination Building permits can now request to convert the paper files to digital. This application is only for these types of permits that started in paper form before July 1, 2020.
Converting to digital means you can submit plans and other documents for your project online 24/7. Digital plans eliminate the need to provide multiple sets of plans for review and the physical drop-off rechecks at the downtown Development Services Center, speeding up the stamp-transfer and permit process. The final permitted plans will be digital for easy downloading.
