Responsibilities
The Building Official is responsible for all duties associated with permitting, building inspections, and planning and zoning. We contract a third party inspector for insuring compliance with all adopted building, plumbing, electrical, mechanical, and gas codes, as well as all state and federal regulations. This is done through a system of construction plan reviews, permit issuance and tracking, and on-site inspections.
The City of Quitman is currently using International Building and Fire Code 2012.
