The Perry County Planning and Zoning Department issues an Improvement Location Permit for a structure that is erected, constructed, reconstructed, moved, converted, or enlarged. Permit Fees vary and construction must start within one year and completed within two years. Before a residential structure is permitted, a sewage disposal system must be approved by the Perry County Health Inspector.

An improvement location permit shall be obtained before any person may;
-occupy or use any vacant land,
-occupy or use any structure hereafter contrasted, reconstructed, moved, or enlarged,
– change the use of a structure or land to a different use, or
– change a nonconforming use.

The jurisdiction of the Perry County Plan Commission and Zoning Appeals is all unincorporated land within Perry County and is outside two miles from the corporate limits of a city or town (Cannelton, Tell City and Troy).

If you need a Building Permit, please select the Building Permit Application.

Plan Commission and Zoning Appeals meetings are held only when there is business to be conducted.
