A common misunderstanding is that only new construction requires permits. In reality, many projects—large or small—may require municipal review.
Commercial and residential upgrades, repairs, replacements, and similar work may also require either a building permit or a permit exemption.
This ensures projects meet state and local code standards for safety and compliance.
Have Questions About Your Project?
Before beginning any construction or improvements, please contact: Laurel Municipal Inspection Agency. Click Here for their Website and Links to their forms and applications.
Other Permits Issued through Patton Borough Office:

Permits for driveways or curb cutting on State Roads even though they run through the Borough ( i.e. Mellon Avenue, sections of 4th and 5th Avenues etc.) must be obtained by PENN DOT.
