HBA Continues Advocacy Relating to Washington County Permitting Delays

At a time when housing supply is at record lows and interest rates, along with carrying fees, are the highest they’ve been in over a decade, bureaucratic delays are the last thing the industry needs. HBA continues to meet with Washington County’s LUT Permitting team while we closely monitor current delays in the county. HBA Government Affairs staff have met with nearly every member of the county commission and continue to express our serious concern and frustration over the backlog at both the beginning and final approval stages of permit applications, currently taking about 6-weeks on either end. HBA will continue to engage and update our members when there is any new data available. In the meantime, please reach out to Preston Korst, HBA Director of Government Affairs (prestonk@hbapdx.org) to provide feedback and any data on project delays to coordinate and compare county data.
