Livingston County Permit Guidebook

Most often the initial contact any resident, developer or builder has with the regulatory process occurs when a development is still an idea. At this initial stage in the decision process, specific information on permits and regulations is critical for determining whether or not to commit time and money to a development.

Information is needed in order to test the feasibility of a particular course of action.  Does the development conform to the local zoning ordinance?  What permits are required?  How long will it take to get the permits?  How much do the permits cost?

The primary objective of the Livingston County Permit Guidebook is to compile information about the regulatory processes of Livingston County governmental departments into one document that will guide anyone seeking development assistance.
