I can’t believe most people already go back to work and these employees still don’t open the permit office to public. I dumbfounded when the elevator did not go up the 20th floor. Later I found out through security that I have to find everything through online and by phone. Seriously? Doctor offices, restaurants and other places are already open and these employees refuse to do so. I am mad that my tax money paying for these people. They can install shield, require masks etc and a lot of questions can be answered easily in person. What kind of city Seattle has become?

THERE IS NO ONE TO CALL FOR QUESTIONS. EMAILING BACK AND FORTH FOR DAYS, WEEKS, MONTHS ON ENDS IS NOT A GOOD WAY TO HANDLE BUSINESS AT ALL.

I googled "how long does it take to get a building permit in Seattle" the answer is 2 weeks. FALSE- I have a building permit ready to be submitted for MONTHS now and they are so unclear on directions, where to turn it in, who is my assigned project person. Nothing is moving and now they are saying I need to schedule online and guess when their next opening is? END OF AUGUST. This place is a joke. I'm going in tomorrow to talk in person and figure out who the manager is because this entire departments favorite answer is "I dont know". What are they getting paid to do?

Hello Ruth, check out SDCI's "Make a Complaint" section here. http://www.seattle.gov/sdci/codes/make%C2%A0a-property-or-building-complaint Also, register yourself as a renter here to make sure your rights are protected. http://www.seattle.gov/sdci/codes/codes-we-enforce-(a-z)/rental-registration%C2%A0and-inspection-code If this was helpful leave a thumbs up.

Hello Sacie, true tandem housing would allow for separate ownership, assuming your property is zoned to allow for that residential structure type and that your property can meet all of the development standards, but if you are referring to a "backyard cottage", "mother-in-law" type Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or Detached Accessory Dwelling (DADU) Unit than the answer is no. City council is pushing to reform how ADU's and DADU's are regulated so stay tuned to those changes.

Hello Kristi, if the alley is a public right-of-way (ROW) designated alley than yes there are standards for the gravel used, compaction, slope etc. in those alleys, and most alleys are public ROWs. Additionally, placement of gravel would require 1 or more permits from Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) such as a Street Improvement Permit (SIP) and Construction Street Use Permit. If this answered you question please give it a thumbs up. Also, check out our website, www.nwpermit.com
Hello John, Yes, SDCI has a Records department where you can search for Building and Land Use records in-person on the 20th floor. You can search online via http://web6.seattle.gov/dpd/edms/, but the availability of some documents is limited. This may be a good tool to identify what permit record is worth looking in to when you arrive in-person. If this was helpful leave a thumbs up. Also, check out our website www.nwpermit.com
Hello Marsha, just like Seattle traffic the lines at SDCI are kind of unpredictable. Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10:30AM can be the worst time as SDCI opens late on those days, and at that time exactly, so people who showed up early are already waiting in line before the doors open. If this was helpful leave a thumbs up. Also, check out our website www.nwpermit.com.
