Frequently asked questions
Does the setback checker guarantee permit approval?
No. It helps contractors find common conflicts and organize documentation, but the local authority decides approval.
What happens when a county rule is missing?
The app should show that the regulation needs verification so the contractor does not submit with false confidence.
