Permits and utilities in Struthers

Struthers lots can fall under the city's offices or Mahoning County's, depending on where the parcel sits, so we confirm which office has jurisdiction before design is final. Zoning approval comes first, then the residential building permit.

The county also requires flood plain approval from the Mahoning County Planning Commission, and either a sewer tap permit (from the county sanitary engineer or, in some areas, Youngstown's) or a septic permit from the board of health. Plans must meet the Residential Code of Ohio.

Struthers City Schools serves most of Struthers; confirm the district for a specific parcel with the Mahoning County Auditor.

Building in Struthers: common questions

Does Sudon Brothers build custom homes in Struthers?

Yes. Sudon Brothers designs and builds custom homes in Struthers, Mahoning County, from our office in Girard. Every home is designed with an architect we work with and overseen on site by Donald Sudon and Jim, both general contractors. Start with a conversation.

Who issues building permits for a new home in Struthers?

Depending on where the lot is, the building permit comes from the city or from the Mahoning County Building Inspection Department, and we confirm which office has jurisdiction for your lot. Zoning approval comes first, from the township, city or village where the lot sits, and lots without public sewer need septic approval from the county health district. As your builder, we coordinate the approvals and inspections.

What school district serves Struthers?

Most of Struthers is served by Struthers City Schools. District lines don't always follow township or city lines, so confirm the district for a specific parcel with the Mahoning County Auditor before you buy.

Can you help me find a lot in Struthers?

Yes. We help clients evaluate lots before they buy, checking zoning, utilities, sewer or septic, drainage and slope, so you know what it will take to build there. See how building on your lot works.
