Permits
Storey County Community Development issues a variety of permits depending upon the scope of work to be undertaken. Before a building permit can be issued for residential or commercial construction or manufactured home placement, land use, sanitation, driveway, and building plan requirements must be satisfied.
Therefore, to help expedite the permit process, we recommend that you contact the Building Department at 775-847-0966 and speak with staff regarding the scope of work and requirements for submission. Also, consider taking a look at Storey County Community Development's Policies and Procedures for an overview of permit requirements and procedures.
