# Duluth UDC § 1127

Approval of Development Conformance

Unincorporated Gwinnett is 67.3% of the county's land area and is governed by a different code, a different board and a different permit portal. Resolve the governing jurisdiction before answering any zoning question.

1. Approval of a Certificate of Development Conformance for any part of a project included in a
development permit shall be a prerequisite to the approval of a final plat for a subdivision or issuance of a
certificate of occupancy for any part of a project included in a development permit, except for single-
family and two-family residential structures.
2. The approval shall reflect the owner's certification that all site work and construction has been
accomplished according to the terms of approved plans and permits, and that all facilities or

regulations, codes and ordinances. Such approval shall be revoked in cases of fraud or whenever
unauthorized changes are made to the site without the benefit of required permits.
