Next meeting: Wed, February 5, 2020; 7:30 p.m. in the Council Room. The public is invited to attend.
Building Permit Submission Deadline
The deadline to submit a building permit application for approval by the Planning Commission and review by the Historic Preservation Commission is the 2nd Wednesday of the month prior to the PC meeting at which the permit will be reviewed (this will be in the following month). This timing ensures the HPC will be able to complete a formal review before the PC meeting as this review is required for the PC to approve the permit in a timely fashion. If you are considering any renovation or building project at your house, be sure to get a copy of the procedures to apply for a Town Building Permit which will help you through the Town’s process.
Permits Up for Approval in February:
- 119 Grove Ave. Screen Porch
- 315 Grove Ave. Demo/Rebuild Shed
Driveway Permits
A permit is now required for construction of a driveway or parking area using Town property for a paved or graveled area between private property and the road pavement edge. This Public Ways and Property permit requirement also applies for any major alterations to an existing driveway or parking area, such as increases to square footage coverage, or changes to location, or changes to surface material. A permit is not required for ordinary maintenance and repair work.
