How permitting works in Alabama
Alabama counties have the legal authority to adopt and enforce building codes in unincorporated areas, but this is a local choice. In counties that have opted in, the county building department is responsible for the entire administrative process, including plan review, permit issuance, and field inspections for all private construction outside city limits.
Localities may adopt; State handles schools/hotels.
