Permits Estimation Guide (PEG)

The Permits & Inspection Estimation Guide (PEG) aims to streamline the permitting process by helping applicants determine where a specific project is allowed, which permits will be needed and provide a cost estimate - all without calls, emails, or visits to the Permitting office.

Keep in mind

  • Information provided by PEG is subject to final approval by city staff.
  • Final costs will be determined during the application process and could vary from the PEG estimate.
  • Permit application submissions, processing and payments are only accepted through the Citizen Self Service portal.
  • If  you have questions or concerns, please contact the Permit office, 281-275-2270.
