Prior to any additions or alterations made to your property, you MUST contact the Building Department to obtain the proper legal building permits. If you live in a historic district, it is strongly recommended that you contact the Building Inspector before you do any alterations or renovations.

In addition, if you are planning a curb cut or installing a new driveway, your contractor MUST contact the Village Hall or the Highway Department to insure proper drainage or that proper elevations are maintained.

If you have altered/added/demolished your residence without a legal permit to do so, or your records do not have a Certificate of Occupancy or Zoning Letter of Compliance for every structure on your property, you must contact the Building Department at the Village Hall immediately.
