FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

November 1, 2012

 

Contact: Bureau of Development Services On-Line Permit and Fee Estimator  Questions | 503.823.7420


November 1, 2012. On October 1st the Bureau of Development Services (BDS) was proud to announce a new Online Fee Estimator tool. This tool is in response to requests from customers and employees over the past several years to create a system to estimate permit fees and system development charges (SDC) associated with development projects. The Online Fee Estimator was developed in conjunction with the infrastructure bureaus to assist all customers in this regard.

This new resource allows our customers the ability to generate and review potential fees and charges related to their development in a timely and predictable manner. It is aimed at saving customers time and providing immediate access to this level of information that was not previously available in this way.

To explore this exciting new feature choose "Online Fee Estimator" from the BDS Homepage, www.portlandoregon.gov/bds.
