North Canton Permits & Inspection Department

The Permits & Inspection Department is a combination of several divisions, including but not limited to:

Building – commercial and residential                                            Zoning

Contractors/Journeymen Registration                                            Nuisances

Water Connections                                                                      Housing

     The North Canton Permits & Inspection office is responsible for plan review, permit issuance, and code inspections for commercial and residential construction and renovation. In addition we conduct zoning, housing, and nuisance inspections and issue Zoning Certificates and Occupancy Certificates. We test and register contractors and journeymen, issue water connection permits, raze building permits and sewer permits.

      It is our hope the information contained on this site will be of assistance to our residents and contractors. However, due to the complex nature of some of these processes, we urge you to call or stop in prior to beginning any construction project, so we may provide guidance and information.
