Pearson

Pearson is the city permit authority for building permitting and inspection inside its incorporated limits. No public Pearson ordinance section or application packet was found that lists project-by-project permit triggers.

Note: No Pearson-specific public exempt-work list was located in the sources reviewed.

Building code

Georgia State Minimum Standard Codes administered by DCA apply statewide. The county hazard mitigation plan states all Atkinson County jurisdictions, including Pearson, implement mandatory building and fire codes.

Owner-builder

Georgia owner-contractor limitations and any city affidavit requirements should be confirmed with City Hall.

Contractor requirements

Georgia state law applies. Residential contractors performing work over $2,500 must be licensed by the Georgia State Licensing Board for Residential and General Contractors. Local occupational tax requirements may also apply.

1. 01
   Confirm the project site is inside Pearson city limits and contact Pearson City Hall, because no current Pearson building permit application page or self-service portal was publicly located.
2. 02
   Confirm present permit routing and inspector assignment. The DCA service delivery filing states Pearson provides building permitting and inspection within the city and used an inspection service agreement for that service.
3. 03
   Obtain the current city application packet and submittal requirements directly from City Hall. No public Pearson checklist for plans, affidavits, or trade-permit forms was located.
4. 04
   Submit the application and supporting materials as directed by the city and contracted inspector.
5. 05
   Pay any city permit fees and complete any required inspections before final approval or occupancy.
