 Administrative Permits

We are pleased to announce improvements to our process for certain minor reductions or deviations from our code requirements. These permits are now reviewed by the Planning Director at an administrative level. This change results in a reduced processing time of two weeks and the cost of processing the request is anticipated to be less. The number of plans required has also been reduced. There are several existing permit processes that are affected by this change and a few new processes that have been created. The following permits are now reviewed administratively:

  • Administrative Adjustment
  • Special Circumstances Waiver
  • Off-site Parking Permit
  • Residential Wayfinding Program
  • Removal and Reconstruction of Historic Structures
  • Modification of Non-conforming Uses
  • Modification of Standards for Non-Conforming Lots

A new application form has been created and can be accessed here. You may also request a telephone consultation with staff to determine if this process could work for for your project without making a trip to City Hall.

These administrative Permits have an appeal period of ten (10) days. To see a list of recent decisions for these administative permits, please click here.
