• Services Available

  Orange County’s Fast Track tools provide much more than online permitting and plans submittal. Search for Development Cases, Field Investigative Reports, Hearings and Meetings, Inspections, Licensed Contractors, Permit Search (all types) or Properties (Address or Parcel). These tools will help you follow your permit application through the approval process, verify that your contractor’s license is valid, get information about recent meetings and much more. All of the search tools are available to anyone, without a member services account.

  In an effort to provide better information to the public, historical records have also been made available. If there are missing or inaccurate records please contact the related agency to request changes.

• Sub Contractors

  Use Fast Track online services to apply for all sub-permits. To learn more about the Sub-Permit application process, please visit the video library on the Fast Track Training Hub.

  Fast Track Member Services permit application tool is currently offered for homeowners and sub-trades license holders for electrical, plumbing, irrigation, gas, roofing and HVAC/mechanical contractors. Non-license holders may also apply for permits but a Licenced Contractor must be assigned and accept the issuance of the permit using their Fast Track account.

  Use the 'Member Services Registration’ link above to create an account. Please review the Fast Track training guides and videos before you submit.

  Before Orange County will issue any building or sub-trade permit, all issuance processes listed on the permit must be complete. On Fast Track, please check to ensure that all the required processes have been successfully completed.

  Note that only homeowners who have completed the Owner-Builder Disclosure Statement and accounts connected to verified Contractor License holders may accept the issuance of permits. Third-parties may also apply for permits on behalf of a contractor and assign the permit to a contractor, who must accept issuance. Please watch the "Assign Contractors, Verifying Permits" training video for more details on this feature.
