The City maintains a building department which issues building permits and performs plan review for construction of all new buildings, garages, alterations, swimming pools, demolitions of buildings, and sundry repairs (replacement of siding, roofing, windows, decks, etc..) The fee for the permit is determined on the type of project. Electrical, plumbing, and heating permits are obtained through the State of Michigan. A building permit must be obtained prior to starting a construction project. The permit fee will be increased per Ordinance of City of Ironwood for starting jobs with out first obtaining a building permit. A Certificate of Occupancy must be obtained and the building must pass final inspection before a building can be occupied. The city follows the 2003 Michigan Building Code and 2003 Michigan Residential Code. The Building inspector can be contacted at the building department located in the Memorial Building at 213 S. Marquette Street.

All rental property within the City of Ironwood has to be registered with the building department. The units must be inspected for compliance with the Ironwood City Code and a Certificate of Compliance is then issued. No one shall rent out property without first registering it.
