About the Building Department

The Building Department is responsible for enforcing the State Building Code and local construction regulations to ensure that buildings and structures in the Town are safe and compliant. The department reviews building permit applications, conducts inspections, and works with property owners, contractors, and design professionals throughout the construction process.

The Building Official helps ensure that new construction, renovations, and repairs meet safety standards related to structural integrity, fire protection, accessibility, and overall code compliance. The department also provides guidance on permit requirements and answers questions related to construction and property improvements.

Residents and contractors are encouraged to contact the Building Department before starting any project to determine whether permits or inspections are required.
