Public Works

Yes! You need a building permit for erecting or altering buildings in town. This includes adding a shed, redoing a deck, adding a fence, and more. The permit is valid for 1 year. Applications for building & fence permits can be picked up at City Hall. Once they are completed, they must be reviewed by the Public Works Director for approval. Where work is started without obtaining a permit, the fees specified for such permit must be doubled. For more information, please contact City Hall at 563-547-3101.
