Building in Bethesda
What is particular about building in Bethesda, in general terms. Permits here are issued by Montgomery County Department of Permitting Services.
General information, not advice on a particular property. Rules change; we confirm what applies to your site before design begins.
What building in Bethesda involves
Tear-down and rebuild
Much new building here replaces an older house on an established street, so the lot, its trees and the neighbors' houses set the terms.
Stormwater and trees
New houses in Montgomery County generally have to manage stormwater on site and meet tree canopy requirements; both affect the site plan early.
Permitting
Building permits are issued by the Montgomery County Department of Permitting Services.
