Septic permitting and record keeping happen at the county level, not the city level, which is why every figure below is attributed to the county and linked back to the county page it came from.

We have not yet collected septic documents from Washington County, Oregon, so for a Forest Grove property the county's own file is currently the only route. This page is about getting you to it, not about pretending we hold something we do not. The county is predominantly sewered: only 10,442 of 145,172 classified parcels are on septic. Septic properties near Forest Grove are the exception, which is exactly why owners often do not know they have one. The county publishes a records portal, but reaching the documents needs an account or a login, so budget for that step rather than expecting an open search.
