Building permits are required in all cases for new buildings. It's important to note that additional permissions may be required depending on the scope of the entire project. These additional permits can be stormwater, electrical, plumbing, grading, and mechanical permits. While all cities and counties are different, certain issues arise to clarify permit requirements.
These topics can be generalized to public and personal safety, plumbing, electricity, and natural gas. Projects affecting those areas will require permits. With changes in security codes and the need to increase revenues, cities and counties include more projects on the list of required permits.
