Obtaining Permits
What do I need to bring when applying?   

Accurate plans of what you plan to build.

A plan view (overhead) and an elevation (cross-section) of structure.  It must be accurate and self explanatory.  We prefer scale drawings but non-scale and well dimensioned will be accepted.  Size of lumber and spans must be identified.  Beams & headers must be identified for size and span as well.

A plot plan of the property showing the location of the proposed building, the septic system and well location

For additions that affect the number of bedrooms in a house or change the footprint of the existing house, the health department must review proposal first.

A "model energy code" calculation is required for homes and additions. (Contact the building official for further details)

Your contractors name, license number and certificate of worker's comp insurance if applicable.

 Effective April 6th, 2009. The building permit fees shall be $20.22 for the first one thousand dollars of construction cost and $12.22 per thousand dollars thereafter.
