Project planning made easy with online portal

Oak Park property owners planning a project can get the permitting process underway online at www.oak-park.us/villageview. The online system offers users an intuitive portal for conducting a wide range of property related Village business via a computer, tablet or mobile telephone. The software solution links multiple Village databases and streamlines and automates information processing. A key user-friendly aspect of the system is its ability to provide real-time information as a permit submittal moves through the review and approval processes. The system also allows contractors and DIY property owners to register with the Village and update permit materials. And when fees are due, payment is accepted via credit card. One-on-one help learning to use the system is available from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. weekdays at Village Hall, 123 Madison St. For more information, email development@oak-park.us or visit www.oak-park.us/villageview.
