Bradley County Building Inspections

A cross section of a house.

Out of an abundance of caution, and for the safety of the public and our employees, all Bradley County Government offices will be closed on Monday, February 2, due to continued hazardous road conditions.

While many main and state roads are clear, a large number of back roads and rural county roads remain iced over and unsafe for travel. With temperatures expected to stay below freezing until tomorrow afternoon, these areas are unlikely to improve until later in the day. Anything frozen now will likely remain frozen until then.

Please use caution if you must be out. County offices will reopen on Tuesday, February 3, for regular business hours. Stay safe and warm.

Due to the potential for inclement weather, all Bradley County Government offices will be closed on Monday, January 26th. This decision has been made out of an abundance of caution for the safety of our employees and the public.

We will continue to monitor weather conditions and will provide updates as needed. Essential services will remain operational.

Please stay safe and exercise caution if travel becomes necessary.

Bradley County Planning, Inspections, & Stormwater will be closed Monday, January 19th, 2026.
