1. How do I know if I need a land disturbance permit for my project?

If you will be disturbing greater than 10,000 square feet or are part of a greater plan of development, such as a subdivision, then you will need a permit. If your project exceeds one acre or 43,560 square feet in disturbed area you will need a plan designed by an engineer or architect. Certain agricultural operations are exempt from this ordinance, reference the county ordinance for those exemptions or contact the Department of Community Development. Please contact Environmental Manager Lisa Perry (540) 564-6095 if you have further questions. Department of Community Development
