Whatcom County will transition from mailing permit and renewal invoices to emailing them starting in October, according to a July 9 announcement. The county's public health department stated the change aims to improve efficiency and reduce costs, with invoices to be sent to the email address on file. The transition is part of the county's broader move toward digital services. The county's customer service portal, which includes the invoicing system, will be updated to reflect the change. Residents with current email addresses on file will receive their invoices electronically beginning October 1.
