Oregon Building Permits

State BCD enforces unless locality assumes duties.

How Building Permits Work in Oregon

Oregon maintains a highly active state role through the Building Codes Division (BCD). The state acts as the primary permitting and inspection authority for the entire state, only "allowing" local jurisdictions to take over these duties if they can prove they meet state service and staffing standards.
