    To avoid extra fees and/or fines, please check  with our Zoning Administrator before you start any building project, including all decks, fences, and sheds.   

 

A Land Use Permit and/or a building permit is required before you erect a shed and/or a ’carport storage cover’ on your property.   Click here for the form.  (Note:  Use the 'Back' option if you wish to return to the Website.)

 

Also, removal of a building from your property requires a demolition permit.  This information helps in removing that building from your assessment value.

 

For more information regarding building permits contact Bob at (989) 821-9313.

If the Building Official determines that a variance is required in order for you to build, you will need to apply to the Zoning Board of Appeals for a variance.  The fee for the application is $300.00.  You may obtain the application at the Township office or here.
