Please call the Building Inspector if you have any questions regarding the need for a building permit.

Please allow 5-10 business days for the permit to be processed.  Once your permit is approved and issued, the building inspector will call the applicant's number listed on the permit application.  You will need to pick up and pay for your permit.  Payment can be made by correct cash amount or check (no credit cards) at the Village Hall.  Commencing work prior to issuance and paying for a building permit will result in doubling of all building permit fees and possibly a work stoppage order, citations and fines.
