BROWN TOWNSHIP PERMITS 

Attention Contractors and Residents: Brown Township is a zoned township; therefore it requires approval and a permit prior to building or construction. Projects requiring prior approval include, but are not limited to: new home construction, garages, additions, decks, new driveways, and adding concrete or blacktop to existing driveways. It is the sole responsibility of the property owner to contact the Brown Township Zoning Inspector, Steve Lauderbaugh (740)501-7694, at the Brown Township Office to submit an application for approval. Anyone failing to do so is in direct violation of Brown Township Zoning Resolution and may be subject to fines and/or penalties.
