Planning to add a driveway or expand an existing driveway on your property? Apply for a permit to make sure your driveway will meet our community’s standards.
A driveway permit authorizes the construction, repair, repaving, or expansion of a driveway. A driveway access permit may need to be filed separately to the transportation department.
During the application process you will need to upload a site drawing showing new or expanded driveway. Include the exact locations and dimensions of all of these features:
If your driveway permit is approved, all work in the right-of-way, including curb, gutter, driveway approach/apron, and sidewalk must be performed by a City licensed Sidewalk contractor. Sidewalk contractor will be required to obtain a Right-of-Way/Sidewalk permit to work in the right-of-way AFTER your driveway permit has been approved.
If your driveway work will be part of a larger development project requiring a Land Use (LUDS) permit, this Driveway Permit Application is not required. However, any work in the right-of-way will require a Right-of-Way/Sidewalk Permit.
To complete the application process online, you must have an account in our citizen portal. If you've never used our citizen portal, create an account here and register with your email address.

Be prepared to pay fees associated with your permit. We accept all major credit cards and e-checks.
