City Hall is closed to the public but Development Services remains open by appointment only. Please email DevelopmentServices@surpriseaz.gov to make an appointment.

Online services are now available for building permits, planning review cases, engineering permits and construction. All digitally designed plans should be submitted to the City via PDF using the Plan Submittal link below. As a result of COVID-19 and adjustments to the Development Services Processes, please expect delays of up to 5 additional business days in processing submittals. Standard Development Review Timelines can be found here.
