Wall signs should include attachment details. Exceptions may be made by the Chief Building Official.

    Encroachment into a right of way requires Encroachment Permit from the Berkeley County Public Works Department. The undersigned acknowledges that if the sign is not erected in conformance with the Berkeley County Zoning Ordinance, he/she will be responsible for its correction or removal upon notification by Berkeley County Building and Codes Enforcement. Permit valid for a period of six (6) months. If said work has not begun within that six (6) months, the permit will be void. *Signed Contract must be attached*

  • Thank you for requesting a permit with Berkeley County Permitting Department, but unfortunately this TMS/address is not in our jurisdiction to permit. Please check with the Town or City that you are applying for. Thank you.
