Development Services, at your service

Starting today, the city’s Development Services Department will have a “dedicated team of permitting experts” on hand to help residents who are repairing damage caused by last week’s storms. In an effort to make the process as smooth as possible, the city has created a new web page that explains what work requires permits. A team of people equipped to answer specific repair questions can be reached at 512-974-1500, 8 a.m.-5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
