Many Spring Building Projects Require Permit Spring often brings thoughts of home improvement projects.
Many projects undertaken by a homeowner require a building permit.
Permits are needed for decks, patios, fences, pools, sheds, garages, roofs, underground lawn sprinklers, furnaces, air-conditioners and other projects. Applications are available from the Building Department at the Village Hall. In addition to project plans, a copy of your plat of survey may be needed. Applications are reviewed for structural requirements, building code compliance and proper setbacks from property lines. A little planning can save a great deal of time and expense.
