Building Department
The Building Department's main responsibility is to interpret and enforce the State Building, Electrical, Plumbing, Gas, Fire Prevention and Mechanical Codes, as well as local zoning bylaws and Architectural Access Board Regulations. Proper application of the Building Codes help provide safe buildings and structures. Enforcement of Building Codes helps prevent property damage from perils such as fire, flood, high winds, snow loads, seismic forces from earthquakes, and most importantly, protects against injury or loss of life. The Building Department staff issue permits, inspect construction at regular intervals, and conduct periodic safety inspections of multi-family housing, restaurants, schools, religious institutions, and other places of assembly, and levy fines or prosecute when necessary to obtain code compliance.
