Do I
need a Zoning Permit?
|
| Zoning permits
(building permits) are
required to ensure that the construction planned is for a legal
use of the property and that all zoning
setback requirements are met. Zoning permits can only be
issued for construction on lots that meet all requirements of
the Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Regulations. Permit
applications with the appropriate fee
are required prior to beginning construction for all non-farm
structures in the unincorporated areas of Clinton County.
Construction may not begin until the permit has been approved. Construction is considered to be any work involving the erection,
construction, reconstruction, moving, conversion, alteration or
addition to any building or structure. If an existing
structure is being expanded (horizontally or vertically) a
permit is required. Minimum setbacks from property lines
are included in the
Summary of Bulk
Standards. A Zoning Permit application form is
available here. |
