Building/Permitting
How permitting works in Alabama
Cities in Alabama are the primary "Authorities Having Jurisdiction" (AHJ) for all construction within their municipal limits. If a city chooses to adopt a building code, its building department manages the entire lifecycle of the permit, from application intake to the final issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy.
Localities may adopt; State handles schools/hotels.
