How to Obtain a Driveway Permit

Any new driveway, the relocation of an existing driveway or new common driveway requires a Driveway Permit ,and an application fee. Each permit application site will be checked by both the Highway Superintendent and Building Inspector for proper sight distance, safety and whether or not a drainage pipe is required. Once the driveway work is completed, it will be checked to ensure all permit requirements were met. Paving of an existing driveway does not require a driveway permit.

Permit Applications may be obtained at the Highway Department.
