Reopening Planning and Building Department Counter Service
The Planning and Building Department has transitioned to processing applications online to provide faster and more convenient access to the planning and permitting process. However, we also under stand that sometimes a trip to City Hall to answer questions is easier than a phone call or e-mail so we have re-opened counter hours for Planning and Building inquiries.
Planning and Building Public Counter Hours
Tuesdays and Thursdays
9 am to 11 am
All visitors are required to wear a face mask, if not fully vaccinated.
To get in the queue please download the “QLess” online queueing system below.
The Planning & Building Department has implemented a new system called “Qless”,which is an automated queuing system to reduce wait times for Planning and Building Department customers. This new system allows customers to get in line for one of our counters without having to come and then provides up dates via text messaging and on-screen monitoring in the City Hall lobby. Please use one of the options below to schedule an appointment:
QLess App: On this page, you can download the “QLess” application.
Online: On this page, you can get in line
Text: (415) 384-9827; once prompted please enter: “mill valley building planning” for location.
If you are unable to use one of the above options, you may schedule your appointment in person at City Hall when the counter is open at the reception desk.
