Land Use Online Resources
Have a land use question?
The DPD online Land Use Q&A service is intended to provide helpful information and answers to your land use questions. Because answers to many questions can easily be found with the online resources DPD provides, we encourage customers to research our Web site first. Often, you will find answers to your questions immediately so that you can continue with planning your project without waiting for a response.
Here are some options that may help you find answers to your questions:
- View permit application status at online Permit & Complaint Status.
- Contact our Public Resource Center (PRC) at (206) 684-8467 for information regarding Master Use Permits (MUPs).
- Contact the Applicant Services Center (ASC) at (206) 684-8850 for information regarding site-specific single-family development.
For specific land use questions on sites proposed for development or for complex questions, we recommend that applicants visit the ASC (location & hours) and speak with a land use planner in person. The more you know about your specific property and situation before you arrive, the quicker your visit will likely be. Wait times to speak with a land use planner in the ASC can be an hour or more during peak hours (10 a.m. to 5 p.m.). DPD provides free wireless Internet access and self-serve computers to make your wait more productive.
