Attention: Payment For Permits

Payment MUST be made prior to receipt of an approved permit. Permits may be submitted via email at mrydl@auduboncountyia.gov or dropped off at the Audubon County Engineer’s office located at 2147 Highway 71, Audubon, IA or mailed to this address.

For construction/change use permits, NO improvements/construction shall take place prior to permit approval. It is the applicant’s responsibility to review the county ordinance and maps prior to submitting the application to be aware of all setbacks and guidelines. A map of the land where the construction will take place MUST be included with the application with an outline/indication where the proposed construction will be located. These can be obtained/printed from https://beacon.schneidercorp.com/.

Contact information for the person submitting the permit, including email and phone number need to be included on the permit. You will be notified when the permit is ready to be approved, the total cost, and any other necessary details. Payment can be made with a credit card (including the 2.25% charge) via the phone or a check can be dropped off at the Engineer’s office or mailed to that address. Once payment has been received and processed, the approved permit will be emailed (preferred method) or a copy can be picked up at the Engineer’s office.
