Morrow County

Morrow County, Oregon: which agency issues building permits, where the records live, and wildfire code adoption status.

Wildfire code, section R327
Cannot adopt locally checked 2026-08-06

Operates no county building department. The state directory lists "Morrow County - BCD", so the Building Codes Division administers the unincorporated county. Only a municipality that operates a building department may adopt R327.

CORRECTED. NOT BCD-administered as a whole. BCD verbatim: the division provides ONLY electrical permitting and inspection services for Morrow County. Structural, plumbing and mechanical are issued by the CITY OF BOARDMAN under contract. Morrow County own site: Morrow County contracts with the City of Boardman for building permits.
