Do I need a permit for pavers, driveway, or hardscape in Campbellton?
It depends. Whether pavers, driveway, or hardscape needs a permit in Campbellton comes down to the details of your project.
Whether pavers or a driveway need a permit varies by jurisdiction and by what and where you are paving. Some jurisdictions require a zoning permit for any residential pavers or driveway, while others trigger a permit mainly by slab size and location. Any work in the public right-of-way, such as a driveway approach, commonly needs a separate right-of-way permit.

Local and county notes for Campbellton
Impervious-surface and drainage limits can restrict how much of a lot you may pave. Work touching the public right-of-way usually needs a separate right-of-way or driveway-connection permit. Pavers in an easement may require an acknowledgement and can be at risk if a utility needs access. Jackson County's own permitting office is the Jackson County Building Services (Community Development) office, reachable on 850-482-9805 at https://jacksoncountyfl.gov/services/community-development/building-services/. Its online permit portal is https://jacksoncounty.portal.iworq.net/portalhome/jacksoncounty. It issues permits for the unincorporated county. If your city does not run its own building department, and many smaller Florida municipalities do not, this is the office that will handle the job. Patios are often exempt while driveway and right-of-way work is not, so confirm which side of that line your project falls on.
