The current generation of internet browsers is phasing out or eliminating older code elements. You may encounter this when you reach the routing page and find that the map is missing. The purpose of this document is to help you restore the map functionality or to identify a compatible browser.
If you cannot see the Map when you go to the routing page, follow the step-by-step instructions in this document to learn how to add the permitting authority's site to your Trusted Sites and how to activate the Run as Administrator settings in Windows 7, Windows 8, 8+, and Windows XP with Internet Explorer 8; there is also a special section for Windows Edge users, and notes on Chrome and Firefox.
Even if you are logged into your computer as an administrator, chances are good that your default permissions are limited to those of a common, or standard, user. Administrator privileges allow a user or an application to add files to, edit files on, or remove file from your computer. When you grant yourself "Run as Administrator" privileges in Internet Explorer, you can download and install the necessary file to restore map functionality.
We recommend using Internet Explorer 11 (allows use of map), Chrome, or Firefox (no map but other routing methods are available) because our site works best with these browsers. If you use Internet Explorer, our permitting and routing solution provides a plugin for the map. It is an ActiveX (OCX) control, which is used automatically and has been supported by Internet Explorer.
If you are an early adopter of Windows Edge, please jump to Section 1.
If you are most familiar with Internet Explorer 11, then click the link for your operating system:
Note: If you do not need to use the map, you may use a browser other than Internet Explorer (such as Firefox, Chrome or Edge).
If you prefer the Chrome browser, please jump to Section 3.
If Firefox is the browser for you, please jump to Section 4.
The new Edge browser featured in Windows 10 does not support plugins and therefore will not run the ActiveX control or Java applet. This means that you cannot use the Edge browser to apply for permits unless you don't need the map. If the map isn't helpful for you, then you can turn it off and continue using Edge. However, if you need the map, you must switch to Internet Explorer 11.
Internet Explorer 11 is built into Windows 10, but it's not the default browser for all web-based apps. The Internet Explorer browser is buried in the Start menu under Windows Accessories. To pin the app to a more accessible location, navigate to it in the Start menu and then right-click on it and choose Pin to Start.
If you would like to set Internet Explorer as your default browser, go to Settings > System > Default Apps then scroll down to the bottom to Set Defaults by App. Once you are in there, scan the list for Internet Explorer and highlight it. On the lower part of the screen, you will find the options for setting defaults.
