How permitting works in Indiana
Indiana counties are required to adopt the state's building rules and enforce them locally. The county role involves issuing the final permit and performing all field inspections, though for commercial projects, the county must wait for the state to "release" the plans before they can legally grant the builder permission to start.
State adopts; locals must enforce via ordinance.
