Stage 1 fire restrictions are in place in unincorporated Douglas County.  For more information on allowable/non-allowable uses please click here.

ATTENTION: Effective immediately CORE ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE, formally IREA, is no longer accepting production meter releases for photovoltaic permits from the Douglas County Building Division unless the meter release date is after CORE has approved the PV plans for that address. Beginning Jan. 10, 2022 all PV permit packets submitted to the Douglas County Building Division, with CORE as the utility provider, will need to have a signed application form from CORE with the submittal packet.

Important:  Other than a Dwelling Unit, an electrical engineer’s signature and the seal are required for any photovoltaic (PV) system to be installed. A structural engineer’s signature and a seal is required for PV modules to be installed. If the letter states that the trusses need to be structurally reinforced to handle the additional weight then a Building Permit is required, if no reinforcing is required then a Building Permit can be submitted and only electrical inspections will be performed.

For more information view the Photovoltaic Inspection Sequence & Checklist
