The Houghton County Building Department issues building permits for most of Houghton County. Jurisdictions who issue their own building permits are the City of Houghton and the Village of Calumet. The County office issues electrical, plumbing and mechanical permits for all of Houghton County. Other applications available from this office include 911 Addressing Forms, Soil Erosion Permits, and Houghton County Road Commission Driveway Permits.
 
A permit application must be filed before construction begins.
