Land Use Permits
Land Use Permits are required for almost all construction. This includes, but is not limited to, new homes, garages, additions, decks, sheds (permanent or non-permanent and all sizes), solar panels, fences, swimming pools (in ground and above ground) and commercial construction. Please contact City Hall before any construction starts for the required permit application and for payment of fees.
Any work started before an approved permit is issued will result in a penalty of 4 times the permit fee
for all districts.
