A Utility Use Permit for public and private utilities is a permit for the use of County property in which King County has an ownership interest. The Utility Use Permit is submitted in the form of a letter. There may be fees required for the processing, administration, land use, inspection, and plan review associated with the permit request. Additionally, there may be a requirement to make King County an additional insured on your insurance policy and bonding requirement to reduce King County exposure to liability and damage.
