Fauquier County, VA
Home MenuCommercial Construction
A Building Permit is required for construction of a new building, addition to an existing building and renovations to an existing building. A Building Permit may also be required for interior and exterior installation of equipment, tanks, retaining walls and similar structures. A Zoning Permit is also required for most commercial work. The County utilizes a combined Building/Zoning Permit Application to allow application for both Building and Zoning permits to be filed simultaneously.
Most new commercial construction, including some renovations related to a change in use, also require Site Plan approval in advance of submitting applications for Building/Zoning Permits.
