The City of Stayton contracts with Marion County for plan review and construction inspection to certify compliance with state and local codes.
All residential and commercial permit applications must be submitted through Oregon E-permitting along with all required supporting documents.
Applicants and contractors are responsible for uploading all required plans and supporting documents to E-Permitting. Once the required materials have been submitted, the formal review process can begin.

Applicable initial review fees are calculated and must be paid before the application proceeds through the review process.

City of Stayton Fees
The City of Stayton collects applicable System Development Charges (SDCs) and School Construction Excise Tax fees.

Final Review & Permit Issuance
Once all required reviews and corrections are complete, the permit will proceed through final processing.
A permit cannot be issued until:
- All required City and Marion County reviews and approvals are complete;
- All corrections have been addressed;
- All required plans and supporting documents have been uploaded to E-Permitting;
- All Marion County fees have been paid through Oregon E-Permitting; and

Please note: If plans or supporting documents are emailed to staff, they will not be uploaded to E-permitting on your behalf. Uploading all necessary documents is the responsibility of the contractor/applicant and is a required step in the permit process.
Additionally, contacting staff to request permit issuance before all required steps have been completed may delay processing. We appreciate your patience and cooperation in following the established procedures to help ensure timely and accurate permit review and issuance.
