Zoning Ordinances

Zoning ordinances take effect when you permanently alter the outside of your home, property, or building. To ensure your compliance with the town’s zoning ordinances we require an opportunity to review your project. This review is important so that your project does not interfere with other property owner’s property rights or with town easements, sewer lines, waterlines, etc. This review takes the form of a permit or zoning certificate.
