A Street or Driveway Access Permit is required for:
- Any new driveway or agricultural field entrance onto a Washington County road.
- Any proposed street or commercial access.
- If a change in the use of a property that adjacent to a County road occurs, the County has a right to review access to the County road and to require a new permit.
A culvert pipe is generally required unless curb is present.
The permit holder is required to provide a pipe that meets County standards.
When applying for an Access Permit, please include a drawing of the site.
For a simple driveway, a line drawing is sufficient.
For a commercial access, the County will need to review the plans for the development and may require a traffic study.
