Planning & Inspections

The Planning and Inspections Department seeks to serve the residents of Orange County by implementing adopted land use, environmental, and building policies and standards through a system of regulations to promote stable and quality development while protecting the environment. Development and construction in Orange County requires permits from several departments and divisions. The Central Permitting Roadmap provides an overview of this process.
