Accela software licensing and implementation
Summary
The county's new online permitting portal went live October 19, replacing a 30-year-old system. Property owners can now log in to track their permits and see what their contractors are (or aren't) doing — plus a 'nosy neighbor' can still check if a permit was pulled across the street. A fee study and redevelopment strategy are next.

Impact analysis
The county hasn't raised development fees in years — a study due in February 2027 will likely bring increases (or some decreases) to match actual costs.
Homeowners, builders, and contractors get faster, more transparent permit tracking online.
Contractors can no longer blame the county anonymously — permit delays are now visible to property owners.
