Zoning Permits
Staff within the Department enforce and administer the local Zoning Ordinance. Issues pertaining to uses of a property, setbacks, lot coverage and other local ordinances are handled by the Zoning Officer and staff.
Please see the Frequently Asked Questions list (PDF) related to common projects you may be contemplating. Whenever there is a question about whether you need a permit or not, it's always best to contact the Zoning Officer for advice.
