Block Walls in Smiths Grove
Smiths Grove's own page says who issues its building permits: "Warren County issues all building permits for the City of Smiths Grove." It gives the County office's address and phone. It does not mention a block wall, so this site states no wall rule for Smiths Grove.

Block Walls around Smiths Grove
The page (read October 8, 2026) gives that sentence in a section headed "Building Permits - (Smiths Grove does not require, but WARREN COUNTY does)", and the next lines of the section say "The City of Smiths Grove and the State of Kentucky requires it." The heading and the later sentence do not agree on whether the City itself requires a permit, so this site relies on neither as a rule and quotes only the sentence about who issues permits. All building inspections, the page adds, are handled through the same County office.
That page does not mention a block wall, so what follows is our inference, not a rule: the City's own page sends a person to a County office, not to City Hall, so someone planning a block wall in Smiths Grove has a stated office to ask, and it is not the City's. The County pages this site has read say nothing about a block wall either. We say nothing about any lot.
