Which office issues your plumbing permit
A plumbing job often starts with a permit, and the office that issues it depends on where you live. Clackamas County's permit jurisdiction page sorts the places on this site as follows.
| Place | Who issues plumbing permits | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| West Linn and its neighborhoods | The county page says the City of West Linn issues most plumbing permits | Confirm with the City Building Division |
| Oregon City | The City only | Buy permits through the City, not the county |
| Gladstone | The county issues nearly all permits; the city issues the building sewer permit | Start with the city for any sewer work |
| Milwaukie, Lake Oswego, Happy Valley, Wilsonville | Each city issues its own | Ask the plumber who pulls the permit |
| Canby and unincorporated areas such as Oak Grove | Clackamas County issues all listed types | Ask the county for the permit |
Tualatin and Tigard have their own city permit rules, and Lents is a Portland neighborhood, so those three pages follow their own city rules, not the table above. Each page says which rules apply.
West Linn neighborhood pages
The seven neighborhoods are Willamette, Bolton, Sunset, Robinwood, Hidden Springs, Savanna Oaks and Skyline Ridge. All of them sit inside ZIP code 97068. The City recognizes each as a neighborhood association, which is why they are named here. Mary S. Young Park on the Willamette River and Camassia Natural Area at the end of Walnut Street are both in West Linn, so a call from near either reaches the same phone line.
The neighborhood pages share a few West Linn facts: the county's page says the City issues most plumbing permits, water heaters must be strapped under Oregon's plumbing code, and the City's water system runs in pressure zones. Each page then adds what is specific to its own streets, such as the age of the houses in Willamette or the ridge slopes in Savanna Oaks.
Where the City has published little about a neighborhood, the page says so and relies on the facts that apply across West Linn.
Eleven nearby towns, from Oregon City to Wilsonville
The eleven nearby towns run from Oregon City, across the Willamette River, to Wilsonville. Only Oregon City, ZIP code 97045, is on the current ZIP list. The other town pages describe the place and its rules, and they do not say the town is covered.
If you live in one of those towns, call with your address. The person who answers will say whether the visit is possible. Until you hear that, treat the page as local information about permits and utilities, not a promise of service.
Details to have ready for your call
- Your ZIP code and street address.
- What the problem is, and whether you have shut off the main.
- Which utility sends your water and sewer bill, if you know.
- Whether the house is older than about 1970, since that changes which pipes to ask about.
