Development Services Center

Learn more about permit delays caused by the recent network disruption.

Development within the City of Kirkland can involve three major departments: Planning and Building, Public Works, and Fire.  Specialized workgroups from each of these departments are collectively referred to as Development Services. Each group has their own role in assisting you with your development goals and needs.

The City of Kirkland has launched an online mapping tool that allows users to learn about building permits, land use actions, and code enforcement throughout the city. The Kirkland Activity Map is now available and allows users to view what is happening around a selected location, share a filtered view of the map, or set up customized email alerts.
