A recent scamming effort has targeted applicants to city land use decisions, infrastructure projects, and other city business with illegitimate fee collection requests. Be wary of fee requests in excess of what Molalla City Staff has conveyed to you and reach out to our staff directly if you receive any payment requests that look suspicious. The City will NEVER request a wire payment.
Business License renewals start in November. An invoice will be sent to all Business License holder’s mailing addresses and emails on file. If you need to update your information, please see the Business License Application on our website, and select “Update your License Information” on the application.
Most new construction, additions, and structures require two approvals: a Building Permit Authorization from the City of Molalla that looks at planning, zoning, and infrastructure, and a Building Permit from Clackamas County that looks at the structure, fire code, and private connections to public infrastructure.
Review our submission guide to understand the process.

We review for zoning compliance.

Apply for a Building Permit with Clackamas County. This can be done simultaneously to City review.
