START WITH THE ADDRESS

The location
shapes the plan.

Salem and Keizer are our focus. A South Salem driveway, a West Salem hillside, and a Keizer side yard can each bring different access, grade, and drainage questions.

Provide the property location with your request so an installer can confirm jurisdiction, suitability, and availability. A city mailing address does not always tell the full story about property rules.

Prepare your project details
TWO CITIES. PROPERTY-SPECIFIC QUESTIONS.

Check before
the work begins.

Requirements depend on the address and scope. Use official city information and confirm the project with the relevant department.

01 / SALEM

Salem projects

Work at a street approach, sidewalk, or public right-of-way can involve additional review. Confirm what applies before treating a driveway replacement or extension as only a private-yard project.

Salem permit guidance
02 / KEIZER

Keizer projects

Check driveway approach and sidewalk requirements when a project changes access or touches the public right-of-way. For an RV pad, confirm the applicable parking and property rules as well.

Keizer Public Works permits

Links are planning resources, not a determination that a permit is or is not required. Ask the relevant jurisdiction about your exact scope.

OFFICIAL LOCAL STARTING POINTS

Three checks before finalizing the layout.

Salem: identify the property and the work

Use Salem’s permit center to find the relevant department and application resources. Describe whether the project retains the existing approach or changes the sidewalk or street connection. Ask for the requirements for the actual address and scope.

Keizer: driveway work and exposed soil

Keizer Public Works lists permits for new, rebuilt and widened driveways, with review of width, slope, materials and drainage. Its guidance also calls for an appropriate erosion-control permit when work exposes or disturbs 200 square feet or more of soil. Confirm how the city applies those requirements to your project.

Keizer RV parking: a separate planning question

The city’s licensing and permit resources include an RV-parking application. Check the intended parking use and location before paying for a final pad layout; the concrete installation, parking use, utilities and a future cover are different parts of the discussion.
