Questions
Planning and permitting help increase the resilience and investment value of a construction project, mitigate an occupant's health and safety during a disaster, protect the local tax base and ensures continuity of essential Town services.
Why do I need a Permit?
- Municipal Code requires permits for all construction within the Town border
- Permits provide third-party verification that you (or the contractor you hired) did the work to minimum code requirements
- Permits provide the homeowner with an inexpensive resource for construction-related needs
- Permits give you access to expertise in all fields including plumbing, mechanical, electrical and framing
