1. How long does it take to get a permit?: Allow 30-60 days for review after a complete submittal package has been accepted.

2. How much does it cost?: Permit costs vary. See the current fee schedule found on the City of Redmond Right-Of-Way page for details.

3. Why would I need a bond?: A bond is necessary to guarantee the proposed work in the Right-of-Way meets the requirements outlined in the permit.

4. Do I need a Right-of-Way permit for a moving pod?

It depends on where the moving (or storage) pod is located.

Pods placed entirely on a private driveway do not require a permit
Pods are not allowed to block any portion of the sidewalk
Pods are not allowed in the Downtown Redmond area
Pods that protrude onto any part of the public right of way require a permit; certain conditions may apply

See Redmond Zoning Code 21.38.010.F.5. for additional details, or contact the Right-of-Way office.
