| Permit Threshold Sqft |
Not found — the county publishes a fee estimate for a 200 sq ft carport permit (~$30) implying that size requires a permit, but no explicit exemption threshold below which no permit is needed was located. Needs direct confirmation with Glynn County Building, Permitting and Inspections.
