The City's Building Inspection Department is responsible for issuing permits, conducting inspections, and enforcing the zoning code.  The goal is to provide professional inspection services that will ensure our homes and businesses are constructed correctly and with quality materials in order to preserve public safety and neighborhood property values.  The City contracts with Kunkel Engineering Group to provide Building Inspection services.  

A building permit is needed for a variety of building projects.  Some examples of projects that would require a building permit are:

                     •  Building an addition on your house or garage

                    •  Building a garage

                    •  Building a deck

                    •  Installing a new furnace or A/C

                    •  Remodeling your house

                    •  Installing new siding, soffit or fascia

                    •  Installing new windows and/or doors in your house

                    •  New plumbing including water heaters

                    •  Changing the pitch of your roof or reroofing

                    •  Installing a fence

Please check with the building inspector or City Hall if you are unsure whether you need a building permit.  Building permits must be obtained before starting your project.  Please allow up to 10 days for permit review.  Permits are non-refundable.
