Building Department

How permitting works in Massachusetts

Every city in Massachusetts is required by state law to have a building department and a certified building inspector. The city's role is to be the absolute authority for all permits, as there is no county-level alternative for developers to use.

351 Cities/Towns enforce; no County role.
