Building Permits - Residential

The purpose of a building permit is to ensure safe, quality construction which protects the public health, safety, and welfare of our residents. The permit process confirms that all standards are met with appropriate materials. Any new construction and remodeling projects require a township building permit. 


Construction under 1,000 square feet does not require a building permit providing it is stand-alone. If attached to a larger construction (house, garage, etc.) inspection is required.


New construction requires a series of five (5) inspections throughout the building process, plus an electrical inspection.


Permits from the township are $25. Any questions, please call the township office at 724-735-2705.
