Building Board

Homeowners or business owners remodeling or making changes to the exterior of their home or business must first appear and obtain approval from the Building Board. A $75 filing fee is required to appear before the Building Board. This fee is in addition to all other fees required in connection with the application for the issuance of a building permit. Homeowners or contractors must submit an application for a building permit, three sets of plans, and a survey.

Example Projects

The following are examples of projects that must appear before the Building Board:

  • Additions
