How permitting works in Massachusetts

Massachusetts counties do not have a role in building permitting. The state's 351 cities and towns are the exclusive entities responsible for the administration and enforcement of the state building code, leaving the county level of government with no jurisdiction over construction activities.

351 Cities/Towns enforce; no County role.
