New Building Division Online Portal
The Building Division has a more efficient access portal. The software enhancements and improvements give users the opportunity to submit electronic plans and online payments.
New Fee Schedule
Grove City Council passed legislation amending Section 1305.17 of the Codified Ordinances, adopting a new Building Division Fee Schedule. The new permit fee structure provides a streamlined approach to fees and a more efficient means of permit processing.
We’re looking forward to the improved software and fee schedule and anticipate a smooth transition. Additional information will be available in the coming weeks; however, feel free to reach out with any questions to 614-277-3075 or email the Building Division.
The Building and Zoning Division is responsible for ensuring compliance with local, state and international building, housing and zoning codes, which keep the community safe and attractive.
The division reviews building plans and issues permits for all construction within the City of Grove City. Building inspectors and code enforcement officers inspect both new and existing buildings to ensure that they are constructed to plan and maintained properly.
The Building and Zoning Division regulates land use through its zoning functions, working closely with the Planning Commission and the Board of Zoning Appeals. The division also oversees development within the City’s floodplains, ensuring that federal regulations are met. These regulations have been established to ensure that new construction or other changes in the land surrounding waterways will not increase flood risks anywhere in Grove City or neighboring communities.
Signage throughout the City also is regulated by the division, which issues sign permits and ensures compliance with the City’s sign code.
