The Oregon ePermitting website allows licensed contractors to apply for building permits with just a few clicks of a mouse!  In order to make the inspection process as simple and convenient as possible the Oregon Building Codes Division created a mobile App called the Oregon ePermitting App. The app is available to the public on both the Apple and Android App stores and is specifically for the inspection process after a permit is issued by a local jurisdiction that participates in the ePermitting program.

Registering for an account is required to apply for permits online, you do not need to register to search for information, schedule inspections or pay fees on an existing permit.

The Warrenton Urban Renewal Agency (URA) was established in February 2007 to revitalize downtown Warrenton. URA created an urban renewal district that encompasses 875 acres that covers downtown and extends along S Main Ave to just south of Warrenton High School. URA outlined the types of land use, projects, and financing in an Urban Renewal Plan & Report that is required by ORS 457. Approximately $1.7 M was dedicated to urban renewal eligible projects in the Plan, which is expected to retire in 2027.
