New Online Permitting Portal Coming Soon!
Big changes are coming to how Lincoln County handles permits. Starting October 15, our new online Permitting Portal goes live, giving residents and contractors the ability to apply for permits, track application status, and manage projects from a computer or phone.
Builders and contractors, this is a good time to start thinking about how you'll manage your permit pipeline going forward.
What you'll be able to do:
-Apply for permits and license online
-Pay fees online by card, or ACH/e-check, with no added processing fee
-Request inspections online
-Upload plans and supporting documents
-Track application and permit status in real time
-Message your reviewer directly through the portal
-Print permits and certificates on demand
