Building Permit Process

WELCOME to our website! Please allow me to share some basic information that may help you navigate the BUILDING PERMIT process. The Town is committed to making the process as painless as possible with the ultimate goal of maintaining a safe environment for all of us!

  1. The Town of Remsen adopts and enforces the NYS Uniform Building Code.
  2. At present, the town does not have Zoning Regulations but does have several Local Laws designed to maintain a safe, comfortable environment for our residents.
  3. Most often, the first question asked is: “What projects require a Permit?” The list of projects is too lengthy to mention all of them but here are some of the most requested; New homes, additions, Commercial structures, Manufactured housing, Sanitary Sewage systems, Camps, Garages, Manufactured Garages, Pole Barn type buildings, any type Storage buildings larger than 144 sq. ft., New chimneys, fireplaces, wood, pellet and gas stoves, Pools, (In ground & Above ground), Decks, Residential Solar installation, Whole-house Generators, etc.FAILURE to obtain a required PERMIT may result in increased costs and/or delay in completing your project.

(Permits, associated fees, instructions and information required from the applicant are available from the Town Offices and in the near future, downloadable from our website.) If your project is not mentioned in this list, or if you have questions regarding the application, PLEASE call or email for clarification. * This will make the process easier, improve communication and reduce the risk of noncompliance issues.

THANK YOU for choosing Remsen to build, renovate or make your home more comfortable! It’s a nice place to live, vacation, work and most importantly, a great community to raise a family!
