Building Inspection
How permitting works in Michigan
Michigan counties serve as the secondary permitting authority. If a city or village within the county does not run its own building department, the county is often the next level of government to provide those services; if the county also declines, the state's Bureau of Construction Codes takes over the role directly.
Locals enforce or State takes over permitting.
