PERMITTING

What permits do I need to begin my project?

Certain construction requires only a zoning permit. Other construction may require a building permit. Sometimes, a project may require a mix of permits depending on the scenario, how your property is zoned and which township or borough you live in. Always check prior to beginning any new construction. 724-573-1111 or greenetownshipsecretary@gmail.com.
