Permitting

Spokane Valley Permit Center

Fast, Simplified Permitting

Spokane Valley has developed a streamlined permitting process that fits the needs of local business owners and citizens. To ensure efficiency as well as environmental safety, the city's highly trained, multi-disciplined technical review staff is available to help clients navigate the permit process and provide innovative solutions. Additionally, Spokane Valley regularly evaluates regulations to ensure the city is utilizing a common sense approach.

All commercial projects, including new developments, are assigned a 10-business-day target review date. However, many permits for commercial and residential projects can be issued both online and over the counter by our skilled International Code Council-certified front counter staff.

Use Our Online Permit Portal

The city's online permit portal allows contractors and residents to apply for building and other construction-related permits online. The portal is available 24/7. Permit fees can be paid online and in many cases, permits can also be issued and printed online. The portal is easy to use, efficient and saves users time.
