CITY OF RENTON WASHINGTON

COVID-19 Update

Community & Economic Development is encouraging the public to utilize the city’s available remote services and avoid making a trip to city hall when applying for a permit.

At this time the permit center is open to serve our customers. However, in order to reduce person-to-person interactions, our operations will be a little different and we encourage you to explore these other options.

Option 1

The city's Permitting Portal is an excellent way to:

• Pay a permit invoice 

• Apply and receive an over-the-counter permit

• Schedule an inspection

Option 2

• Many permitting questions and additional information can be found by visiting the city's permits page.

• Need Code Compliance information? Visit the city's Code Compliance page.
