Site Excavation in Wayne County: FAQ

Grading shapes the ground surface. Site excavation covers the whole earthwork package, including clearing, digging the footprint, trenching for utilities and grading.
For new buildings it is often required or strongly recommended. Soil borings tell the engineer and excavator whether the ground can carry the load and where water sits.
A typical residential lot can take several days to a few weeks depending on clearing, weather, inspections and how many utilities are run.

Permits come from the city, village or township where the property sits, not the county. Your city page lists the building department.
