In observance of the Independence Day national holiday, all Douglas County Government offices will be closed Friday, July 4. Offices will reopen on Monday, July 7, for normal business. Many County services are available 24/7 by visiting online services. License plate renewal is available online or at kiosks located throughout the County and state.
Douglas County has an expedited permit process for one-time, or seasonal, events such as fall festivals, concerts, or carnivals to occur on large rural properties and in the Town of Sedalia. The intent of the process is to allow property owners to hold such events while ensuring that basic life safety requirements are met and that neighbors are provided notice and an opportunity to comment. Section 22B, Entertainment Events, of the Zoning Resolution sets forth the standards, submittal requirements, and process steps for such events.
