    Frequently Asked Questions

    Our Building Division understands that our customers are busy people. Many homeowners have day jobs that don't allow for daytime research.  That's why we try and put as much information on our website as possible so that it's available to you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  Here we answer many questions that people have.

  • Think Permit

    Promoting safety and value for your home.

  • Childhood Lead Poisoning Safety

    Although the Oregon City Building Division is not responsible for enforcing EPA lead paint removal rules, the safety and health of the city’s citizens is our number one priority. As a public service we would like to raise awareness of the risks of childhood lead-poisoning. If your home or a home you will be working on has been painted prior to 1978, it is likely to have lead-based paint. Oregon DHS reports that nearly 50% of childhood lead poisonings are likely related to repainting and remodeling in the home.

  • Inspections

    The City of Oregon City accepts inspection requests 3 different ways, available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for your convenience.
