Hopewell, VA
Building/Permitting Department
How permitting works in Virginia
In Virginia, cities are "independent" and have the exact same permitting authority as counties. The city's role is to maintain a local building department that is the exclusive authority for all permitting and inspections within its specific municipal boundaries.
Cities and Counties separate; clean territorial split.
