On February 22, 2006, the DDES Permit Center hosted a Roundtable discussion with permit runners and builders to discuss permit intake procedures, permit application requirements, and other issues. The meeting was very interactive and at the request of the attendees, presentation materials from the meeting have been made available online: - View Permit Center Roundtable 2006 PowerPoint Slide Show - Open or download Roundtable 2006 PowerPoint file (3.5M .ppt**) - Presentation in PDF format: Roundtable 2006 pdf (1.2M .pdf**) Permit center staff are working together to implement procedures to address many of the suggestions put forth at that meeting for improving processes, communication, and overall service. Suggestions involving other Department sections will be shared with appropriate staff. Due to the success of this event, we hope to continue this format with other sections in DDES.
