Get a Permit Before Rebuilding,
before making major repairs, new construction or demolishing. Check with our building official and floodplain administrator for permitting requirements. Permits protect owners, residents, communities and their buildings by making sure construction meets current building codes, standards, flood ordinances and construction techniques. Permits also provide a permanent record of compliance with elevation, which is useful information when selling a home and getting a quote for flood insurance.

Building A New Home? Adding On?
Yep, there is likely a permit required. Electrical, plumbing, HVAC, gas... it is better to call first and find out you don't need it, than our code enforcement officer to see you doing it. Then the fees double. We are currently using the 2021 International Building & Residential Codes.
