How permitting works in Kentucky
Kentucky counties function as the local enforcement arm for residential construction. While the state handles large commercial builds, the county building department is the primary point of contact for homebuilders, responsible for issuing permits and ensuring that new dwellings meet the Kentucky Residential Code.
State handles commercial; locals handle residential.
