City of Birmingham to open temporary satellite location for certain services during World Games

Birmingham, AL – The City of Birmingham will open a temporary satellite office for permitting and finance services during the upcoming World Games. The office will be located at 1200 Tuscaloosa Ave. on weekdays from Monday, June 27 through Friday, July 15. Hours will be 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. for permits and 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. for finance.      

All permitting applications will be available at the satellite office as well as the following finance operations: business licenses, business taxes, payment of permit fees, and cash management functions. Checks and debit/credit cards are preferred for all payments.     

The satellite office is being offered because City Hall will have limited access due to its location within a secure perimeter during the World Games, which takes place July 7-17. City services will continue at City Hall with reduced staff and limited parking because of road restrictions. In an effort to provide ease of entry and quicker access to services, the satellite location is being made available.    

For questions about permitting services offered at the satellite office, call 205-254-2211 and 205-254-2904. Inquiries about finance services offered at the temporary site, call 205-254-2188 for the central cashier and 205-254-2198 for tax and license.
