What work can be done without a permit?

Interior and exterior painting or decoration, wallpapering, tiling and carpeting not installed in a commercial building or structure that does not require the replacing of structural members. Additionally, any necessary repairs that do not involve material alteration of structural features. Examples of items not needing a permit would include: The replacement of broken window glass, repair of frozen water pipes and changing of an electrical fuse or the replacement of a broken or missing electrical receptacle do not require a building permit. When in doubt about the need for a permit, call 769-1926.

Note: Certain areas of the Village necessitate Architectural Review Board approval on work being done to the exterior of the building prior to commencement of work. Please ask the Building Inspector if your renovation will require Architectural Board review.
