| The mission of the Planning and Inspection
Department is to plan for and review the development and maintenance
of the privately owned, physical environment of the city. The
Planning and Building Divisions have been actively involved
in implementing a new Smart Permit software created by Tidemark
Systems. The City has been testing the software system in house,
and hopes to have "live applications" ready soon to
better serve our many permit customers. Simple permit forms
are downloadable from the City's website in the Permit
Center & Licenses under the Community section. |
