March 14th, 2024 – Town Supervisor Angie Carpenter, members of the Islip Town Board, along with Planning Commissioner Ela Dokonal and IT Director Doug Miller, are pleased to announce the soft launch of the Islip’s new digital Applications Portal. This online tool offers a convenient platform for property owners and authorized parties to access property information, file applications, and check the status of applications from home, the office, or on-the-go.

This soft launch of the new portal currently allows residents to digitally apply for select building permits such as new buildings, additions and alterations, to name a few. Over the coming months, we will continue adding new online applications to the portal, including Engineering and Planning Division applications.

“Our goal has always been to improve the way residents, businesses and stakeholders interact and do business with our Town. This online Planning and Development Portal is a necessary leap forward in the modernization of our services, and will revolutionize the way the public applies for and tracks applications,” said Islip Supervisor Angie Carpenter.

Participation in the launch is easy. Simply visit https://planning.islipny.gov/ and follow the instructions to create an account. After validating your account, you will have the ability to submit applications, upload documents, and interact with currently available features.

“This is an important step forward for the Planning and Development Department, enabling residents to access information and submit applications at the click of a button. This system will add transparency and streamline the permitting process. We are thrilled to launch it to the public, and continue to provide new features moving forward,” said Planning and Development Commissioner Ela Dokonal.

The new Portal comes alongside the launch of Islip Town Square, a one-stop-shop for the Town of Islip’s most accessed webpages and services. Users can access this hub, which includes the new Online Planning Portal, via www.islipny.gov/town-square.
