City of Apple Valley, MN Permits

Building, zoning, and trade permit types administered by Apple Valley

How permitting works in Apple Valley

The Minnesota State Building Code (MN Rules chs. 1300–1370, administered by the Department of Labor and Industry) is the standard statewide; municipalities that have adopted it administer it locally, and townships may defer administration to the county. Plumbing and electrical work are permitted through DLI where no local delegation exists. Zoning and right-of-way permits are local.
