The number of building permits issued annually both in person and online.

The fluctuations in permits issued is largely dependent on the number of construction projects and weather events.

The percent of total permits issued online (e-permits) has steadily increased over time. This positive trend is a result of internal marketing efforts by the City. 

The Building Inspections Division issues building permits to ensure buildings are constructed safely and comply with the State of Minnesota, and local building and fire codes. Promoting the use of technology available through e-permits streamlines the permit process for contractors and improves the efficiency and effectiveness of the City.
