Marin County permits — week of 2026-05-18

A single permit is doing the heavy lifting this week: a $4.79M office and bathroom buildout at the Marin County Fire headquarters in San Rafael accounts for more than half of the county's entire declared value. Strip that project out and you're looking at a sleepy $3.6M week dominated by maintenance pulls and owner-managed improvements. The one bright spot beyond the county job is a full house replacement out in Inverness — a nearly $1M rebuild on Dream Farm Road that signals continued appetite for high-end construction in West Marin.
