This is required of any project which results in a change of lot coverage for any structure or which changes the structural integrity of a structure. Examples of projects requiring permits are storage sheds, decks, porches, swimming pools, building additions, replacement windows or siding. Special conditions must be met if a building permit is sought for a project within the flood plain. Flood plain maps are available at the Borough Offices. The fee for a permit for new residential construction is determined by the square footage involved.
Cubic feet determine the fee for commercial projects.
This permit is required when a proposed project will disturb the natural terrain, alter the flow of storm water, involve more than 1,000 cubic feet, or involve filling greater than four feet. In certain cases, an erosion and sedimentation plan may also be required. This permit is required if a structure, or portion of a structure, is to be removed from a site within the Borough. Sign Permit Permits are required of any business erecting signage within the Borough. Signage is not permitted in certain zoning districts.
