Logan City ’s building approvals are used as a leading indicator of the general level of residential development, economic activity, employment and investment. Residential building activity depends on many factors that vary with the state of the economy including interest rates, availability of mortgage funds, government spending, and business. Residential and non-residential building completions occur once the building approval has completed construction and has been inspected and certified by a building certifier.

This Department does not research for property deed restrictions and easements that may impact building approvals. This application will not be accepted without all necessary information as indicated. Zoning approval when required. Site approval from Logan Health District or Ohio EPA must be submitted for new structures or additions. Join our virtual public meeting on Tuesday, Aug.
