About each permit

Public Works Development Review — Commercial/Industrial Site Plan, Site Work and Driveway

A commercial or industrial project that involves site work, drainage or a driveway connection goes through Thurston County Public Works development review alongside its CPED permits. The 2026 Public Works Development Review Fees sheet, linked from the county's permit-fees page, prices the Commercial/Industrial Development items as follows: project hourly review $175, billed at permit issuance; site plan application and inspections $875 for five base hours; a site work permit at $0.10 per square foot of disturbed area; an administrative site plan review (Public Works fee only) at $350 for two base hours; and a driveway apron at $525. These Public Works fees are separate from, and in addition to, the CPED building permit and any land-use fee. The sheet applies to projects with site, road or driveway work; a tenant moving into an existing building with no site work is outside these items. Contact the Permit Assistance Center at 360-786-5490.
