A demolition permit is required for the removal of improvements from your property.  There is a $20.00 charge for the permit and it is to your benefit to have the building removed from your tax assessment and thus reduce your tax bill.  Any and all demolition materials must be removed from the municipality and disposed of in an approved landfill.

Still unsure if you need a permit, please contact the office.
