Zoning and placement
Zoning permits are not required for interior remodeling, at-grade patios, garage sales, temporary signs, or driveways, but structure placement still needs review when a listed structure is built or replaced.

Beavercreek directs applicants to Greene County Building Regulation for building, plumbing, electrical, or HVAC permits.

Building and Trade Permit Coordination
Beavercreek residential projects often start with city zoning approval, while building, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC permits are obtained through Greene County Building Regulation.
Permit and scope questions
Beavercreek separates city zoning permit review from county building, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC permit review.
Zoning and placement
Residential replacement or construction of fences, decks, sheds, pools, homes, garages, retaining walls, patio covers, and additions should be checked through the city zoning permit process.
Building and trade review
Interior remodeling does not require a Beavercreek zoning permit, but mechanical, electrical, plumbing, or structural work may still require Greene County permits.
Discuss your project early when: Call before starting a project that mixes zoning placement and trade work, such as a deck with electrical, shed with utilities, pool, addition, or patio cover.
