Winter Closure

Town Hall will be closed for the holidays beginning Friday, December 23, 2022 and will resume regular business hours on Tuesday, January 3, 2023. During the closure, the Building Official will allow architects to inspect architectural building features and engineers to inspect engineered building features. This option will expire on January 2, 2023 and is permitted for all construction, excluding foundations, which need to be verified by the Building Division for property line setback requirements.

A daily report must be compiled for each inspection by the design professional with their name, signature, a complete description of the work, and the location of the work accepted. Please submit all reports by the design professional no later than January 5, 2023. Please be advised that additional inspections may be required as deemed necessary by the Building Official.
