Its online permit portal is https://permitting.schneidergis.com/jurisdiction/36ac59a0-cdcf-4e4c-ae89-682540d7a14a. It issues permits for the unincorporated county. If your city does not run its own building department, and many smaller Georgia municipalities do not, this is the office that will handle the job.
