How permitting works in Delaware
Incorporated cities in Delaware have the right to "opt-in" to their own permitting authority. If a city establishes its own department, it takes over all permitting duties from the county; otherwise, the city relies on the county building department to provide these services for city residents.
Three counties dominate; municipalities may opt-in.
