Do I need a permit for a minibarn?
According to Section 730-300 of the Revised Code: Minibarns under 120 square feet in size and not on a permanent foundation, need a Stormwater Drainage permit and a zoning review to be sure your minibarn is not located in an easement or setback. To build a minibarn 120 square feet in size and not on a permanent foundation, you will need a Stormwater Drainage permit and an Improvement Location Permit. Minibarns greater than 120 square feet in size or on a permanent foundation, you will need a Stormwater Drainage permit, an Improvement Location Permit and a Structural permit. Minibarns over 200 square feet must be on a permanent foundation in order to comply with Indiana Residential Code.
