Frequently asked questions for Perry County
Who handles permitting for this jurisdiction?
Perry County Board of Supervisors is the identified county-level authority for this profile. Confirm that the property is in its service area before filing.

How long might review take?
A typical review timeline was not verified. Ask the agency for its current completeness and review estimate.
How are inspections scheduled?
N/A—no county inspection-scheduling instructions or online booking system were published. Contact the Perry County Board of Supervisors at 601-964-8370 for the current unincorporated-area permitting and inspection process.
Which codes and exemptions should I review?
N/A—Perry County's current official website does not identify a specific adopted building-code edition or publish a county building department's code list. Mississippi law permits counties to adopt nationally recognized building codes for unincorporated areas. The county has not published a local minor/cosmetic exemption list. Mississippi law generally excludes agricultural/forestry land uses and farm buildings or structures outside municipal limits from county zoning permits, except where flood-disaster-protection requirements apply; confirm applicability with the Board of Supervisors.
