Does oven or gas work on Redmond Ridge need a county permit?

A pro-style range standing open. Swapping a part inside it is one kind of job; running a new gas line or vent to it is quite another.

Why the city is not involved
Redmond Ridge lies outside Redmond’s city limits, in unincorporated King County. Gas piping and building work there are permitted through the county; in Washington, electrical permits outside cities that run their own come from the state.
Anything that shows from outside, such as a new vent cap, may also need the homeowners’ association’s architectural approval first.
Gas piping and new circuits are work for a gas fitter and an electrician. A service call settles whether a fault needs either, or only a part.
The long read, Redmond Ridge isn’t Redmond, covers the association’s review and why the Ridge’s appliances aged together. Visits there are on the Redmond Ridge page.
