| SB 713, effective September 2003 directed the Department of Consumer and Business Services to establish a pilot electronic permitting program in the Portland metro area and to assess the resources necessary to construct an electronic permitting system to serve contractors and jurisdictions statewide, and exxempted electronic permitting transactions
from signature requirements, or the submission of handwritten materials mandated by a host of statutes covering licensing and permitting requirements. |
