No building permit shall be issued by the Zoning Administrator except in conformity with the provisions of this Article, unless he/she received a written order from the Board of Adjustment in the form of an administrative review, conditional use, or variance as provided by this Article. Building permits are required in the following instances:
- For any improvements on or to any structure/building in which the market value (net worth) of the improvements exceeds $3,000.
- For any structure or building, regardless of cost, if additional land or area is required for it to be sited on.
- For any storage sheds with an area of 80sq ft (8×10) or larger. Sheds less than 80sq ft in size do not require a building permit, but need to meet the setback requirements of the applicable district,
- For any concrete asphalt, paved or graveled driveway erected, partially erected, moved, added to, or structurally altered that abuts any county road or located in a county right-of-way.
- For any change of use or occupancy within a building or structure.

Among other things, structures include, but are not limited to, buildings, manufactured homes, walls, fences, billboards, and poster panels.
3.2 Provisions of This Ordinance Declared to be Minimum Requirements. In their interpretation and application, the provisions of this ordinance shall
be held to be minimum requirements, adopted for the promotion of the public health, safety, and welfare. All provisions of this ordinance, must at a minimum, be met in all circumstance. Wherever the requirements of this Ordinance are at variance with the requirements of any other lawfully
adopted rule, ordinance, or Board of Adjustment decision, the most restrictive or that imposing the higher standards, shall govern.
Pursuant to TITLE 16 CHAPTER 16.6 of the Marshall County Zoning Ordinance, It is the owner’s responsibility to obtain a permit prior to construction on his/her property, owned or leased. Initial fees shall be based on the estimated cost of the construction, alteration or repairs. If at the completion of the construction, alteration or repair, the estimated cost as given in the application appears inadequate to the Zoning Administrator; he/she may demand bills or receipts to substantiate such value and additional fees may be assessed accordingly.
911 Addressing
All 911 addressing for Marshall County outside of the cities must be given by the GIS department. For all addresses within the city limits, contact your local City Hall.
New Building Sites
To assign a 911 address, the location of the structure (i.e., home, shop, business, etc.), your driveway and where it meets the road need to be decided. The address is assigned based on GPS coordinates of the exact location you provide, so changing your building plans or moving this driveway may change the address.
You are responsible for making sure that your house or property is labeled properly for Emergency Services.
Addressing a 2nd building at that location
A 2nd address may be required for the following reasons:
- 2nd dwelling (house or mobile home) is added to the same property.
- a phone line is added to another structure (the phone company requires an address for each structure with a phone line).
As with these, along with the new building site – please allow a month for these structures to be addressed.
