New Online Process
The City of Rolling Meadows has launched a new online platform for inspections, business and rental licenses, and zoning requests! Online permitting coming soon!
New Online Processes
The City of Rolling Meadows has implemented a new building, planning, licensing, and inspection software. You can now register for an account to apply for a new business or rental license and zoning requests (special uses, variances, etc). Renewals for licensing will be available for the upcoming licensing year (2024 for business licenses and 2024-2025 for rental licenses). You can also print your own license right from the portal.
The new online portal allows you to follow your request! Once you have logged in and can see your permit, license, etc, you can see where it is in the review process at any time, day or night.
To register, click on the link above and click on the "Login or Register" box on the left side. If you have trouble with the portal, or can't find your permit or license, contact Community Development staff at cd@cityrm.org or 847-506-6030.
