In order for a utility company to place their facilities (pipes, wires, poles, etc.) in the county road right-of-way, they must have a franchise agreement in place with Pierce County.
Call (253) 798-3687 to find out which franchised utilities are in your area.
Permits may be required depending on the magnitude of the work a utility company plans to perform. The specific information on classes of utility permits is detailed in the Manual on Accommodating Utilities.
For the most up-to-date permit forms and contact information, please see the printable/editable forms below. We are currently not able to process permits online.
