APCO only rules inside the 490 line so there is no need to worry about them with the porch. If you are in Tallapoosa county you don't have to worry about inspection or permit unless the cost is over 10k and even then compliance is pretty much voluntary. If you live in a Russell development you may have strict HOA rules but I doubt that is the case or you wouldn't need to ask here. Coosa county is much like Tallapoosa. Elmore may be different. I am not familiar with what they require but several members are so if you post the area you can get more specific help if you need it.
