DSD resumes in-person services
Monday, March 7, 2022 by Elizabeth Pagano
In light of Austin’s rapidly declining Covid-19 risk level that is currently settled in Stage 2, the city’s Development Services Department is ready to restore in-person services. Operations at the Permitting and Development Center will resume Monday, March 21. The city also plans to continue offering virtual services. For the most part, appointments will be available virtually and in person, Monday through Friday. As part of an ongoing effort, Wednesdays will be focused on clearing up a backlog of applications and permit requests, so no Wednesday appointments will be available for commercial intake, residential intake, land use intake, site and subdivision inspection intake, or the service center.
