Antioch is a small unincorporated community in the rural area north of Jonesboro. Unlike Bono, Brookland, or Lake City, Antioch isn't its own city, it doesn't have a city hall or a separate municipal government.

Antioch permits through Craighead County, not a city hall

Because Antioch is unincorporated, residents get government services, including building permits, from Craighead County rather than a town office. Contact Craighead County directly to confirm the current process for a residential deck at your specific address.


Building on Antioch lots

Rural Craighead County lots outside the incorporated towns can vary more in soil and drainage than in-town properties, no consistent subdivision grading to rely on as a baseline. Footing depth gets confirmed on-site before any digging starts.

FAQ

Does being unincorporated mean Antioch doesn't need a deck permit?

No. Arkansas's statewide 2021 IRC-based code applies in unincorporated areas the same as inside any city, Craighead County is simply the government that administers it here instead of a city hall.
