In Troy, the county issues the building permit, not the city
Commercial building and electrical permits for Troy facilities come from the Miami County Building Department, which is based in Troy. The City of Troy issues zoning permits. So if a door replacement or new opener wiring in Troy needs a permit, it comes from the county, and the provider should know that.

- Is the price for this door's or leveler's actual size and type?
- Are parts on hand?
- Who pulls the Miami County permit, if one is needed?
- What warranty comes with the work, and who provides it?
