City Permitting Process to Pause for Launch of Online Permit Center

On December 14, 2020 the City’s new Online Permit Center will go live with upgraded features and functionality for a host of permits and licenses, including:

• Building and Engineering Permits 
• Land Use Applications 
• Business Registrations and Specialty Licenses 
• Code Complaints Submissions
• Inspection Scheduling
• Special Event & Fire Requests 
• SDC Estimates 
• Documents and Agreements 

From November 25 through December 11 permit activities will be limited as existing records are transitioned over to the new software. The City of Bend will not be accepting new applications or payments, no permits will be issued, and no plan reviews will be conducted during this time. Inspections will continue and there will be limited staff available for customer inquiries.   

To prepare for this upcoming conversion period, please complete any existing applications, inspections and/or permits and pay any outstanding fees prior to November 25, 2020, to avoid project delays.   
 
The best way to stay up-to-date on the new Online Permit Center is at http://www.bendoregon.gov/permitcenter. Content will continue to be posted on the conversion status along with upcoming trainings.
