Permit may be required

It depends. Whether pergola or trellis needs a permit in Unincorporated Marshall County comes down to the details of your project.

The 2024 IRC work-exempt list has no item for pergolas; a detached one-story structure of not more than 200 square feet may fall under the accessory structure exemption (R105.2, Building item 1), while an attached pergola or one with a solid or louvered roof is more likely to need a permit. Wiring for lights, fans, or outlets is electrical work that the building exemption does not cover (R105.2). OUBCC adopted IRC Chapter 1 only to the extent it does not conflict with a local jurisdiction's lawful administration of the code (OAC 748:20-6-6), so the local office's own permit and exemption list controls.
