Permitting Assistance

Permitting needn't be a roadblock to the relocation of an existing business, or to the creation of a new enterprise. In Allegany County, we make sure it isn't.

Locate in Allegany County, and our county staff will make your transition to our community a smooth one. Our staff will advocate for your company at both the state and federal level, ensuring that state and federal regulatory agencies understand the importance of your project to the Allegany County community. We will assist you in wending your way through the regulatory process whenever possible. Your business is important to our community.

You may wish to utilize Maryland's Business License Information System ( www.blis.state.md.us ) to quickly connect to information on permits and licenses you may need to start, relocate or expand your business. BLIS offers instant information on business licenses, occupational licenses, permitting information and business start-up information.

You can access the same kind of information on Allegany County Land Use (building) Permits through the County's web site at http://gov.allconet/permits. Or, if you prefer a more personal approach, you can call the county's Department of Community Services at 301-777-5951. Either way, we're here to help.
