Welcome to Aberdeen WA Building and Permitting

Code Enforcement Division

This division is responsible for code compliance and enforcement within the City of Aberdeen. Code Compliance Officer Ray Olson works to ensure that properties and structures within the City comply with all municipal, zoning, housing, and building codes.

He is also available to address business associations, residents, and tenants concerns.

Health and Safety
The health and safety of our community is a concern for all residents and businesses. Therefore, the City standard is to assure that all properties are safe. Safety issues of concern:

  • Substandard, vacant buildings, and abatement of dangerous buildings
  • Substandard/haphazard construction on fences, sheds, and houses
  • Visual obstructions on private property for traffic and pedestrian ways
  • Lack of landscape maintenance, dead and overgrown plants and trees

Quality of Life
The economic welfare, and community character of Aberdeen are attributable to its unique aesthetic features and setting. The City finds it necessary to safeguard our appearance by encouraging residents and businesses to work towards improving our quality of life. Examples of violations:

  • Cars on lawns, non-operational cars on private property
  • Trash, abandoned appliances, green waste, and junk
  • Lack of landscape maintenance, dead and overgrown plants and trees
  • Illegal storage of vehicles, recreational vehicles, boats, and trailers


The Aberdeen Building Department is located on the Second Floor of City Hall at 200 E. Market Street.
