D’Andrea says
unincorporated areas of
Logan County have not
adopted building codes.
Recently, the Logan County
Planning and Zoning
Committee has been working
on developing standards,
though, so once these
standards are in place, an
addition might need to be
inspected.
These are just a few rules you need to be
aware of when remodeling in the city of
Lincoln limits or in unincorporated areas of
Logan County.
If you live elsewhere in Logan County,
contact your local city hall about possible
building laws to make sure you are
following the guidelines.
