Electronic Permit System
Summary
Davenport is moving construction and renovation permits online, so paper applications are on the way out. If you’re planning a project, you’ll soon file from a browser instead of dropping off paperwork—expect a simpler process, but also a learning curve for anyone who isn’t online.

Impact analysis
The city may save on paper and staff time, while applicants save trips and postage—though there could be upfront tech costs and a short adjustment period.
Contractors, homeowners, and city staff benefit most—online filing means fewer trips, faster tracking, and less paper shuffling.
People without reliable internet or digital skills—especially some older residents and small contractors—could struggle with the online-only switch.
