Please contact our building inspection services staff at 541-942-3340 for any questions you may have regarding building permits, plan reviews, or inspections .
The City of Cottage Grove uses ePermitting.
The City of Cottage Grove participates in the statewide ePermitting program. The full-service program lets contractors use a variety of online services, including purchasing permits, submitting electronic plans for review, receiving correction notes, printing permits, tracking permit progress and getting a Certificate of Occupancy online. Architects and engineers can also submit documents through the system. This means anyone with access to a computer and the Internet can submit plans, track projects and buy different type of building permits online. Further information on the system can be obtained online or from the Community Development Department.
If you need assistance setting up a new account or applying for a permit, please call the ePermitting Help Desk at 1-800-442-7457.
The Building Department has five major responsibilities in Cottage Grove:
- Providing plan review on building, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing permit applications
