Gilliam, Sherman, Wasco, and Wheeler Counties Go Live

On February 12, 2018 Gilliam, Sherman, Wasco, and Wheeler Counties went live on the ePermitting System.  Previously, MCCOG provided services for all of these counties, grouped together under one agency in Accela.  Now, each county was broken out into it’s own agency and the Building Codes Division provides Building services for these counties.  All MCCOG permits were converted into the correct county but the permit numbers did not change to make it easier for contractors and citizens to find their existing permits.  In addition to the Building module, Wasco County now utilizes the OSM Planning module.  We took advantage of a newer feature in Accela where Wasco County was configured in a way to allow the Building and Planning modules to use two different Converge accounts and the system automatically deposits the money into the correct Converge accounts.
