Augusta-Richmond County operates as a consolidated government, meaning the county and the city of Augusta function as a single jurisdiction for permitting purposes. All building permits, zoning, and inspections are handled centrally by the Augusta-Richmond County Planning and Development Department. There are no independent incorporated cities within the county that manage their own separate building departments.
