Requirements & Fees

Encroachment permits are required any time work is being performed in the public right-of-way, or if the work will affect the right-of-way, such as installing a new driveway. Fees vary depending on the type of permit needed and how extensive the work is. The fees are collected solely to cover the cost of staff administrative and inspection time associated with the specific permit.

Applications

Traffic control plans (if applicable) and conceptual plans must be submitted with each encroachment permit application, along with proof of insurance. To apply for a permit, please complete the Encroachment Permit Application (PDF) and return to the General Services Department via email to Encroachment Permits, or return it to us in person or by mail.

The Engineering Division provides project and program support of activities primarily in the public right-of-way. The projects generally include public infrastructure such as roads, streets, bridges, utility lines and waterways. The engineers also provide engineering support to development projects by processing permit applications and reviewing plans in conjunction with the Community Development Department.

Plan Checks, including Improvement Plans & Grading, Lot Line Adjustments (LLA) review and comment, Public Utility Easements (PUE) and Parcel Map, Final Map, and Subdivision Map reviews and approval are some of the Department responsibilities to ensure that Citrus Heights Development Standards are met.
