From plans to inspections
Building standards help protect the people who live, work and gather inside a structure. The building department reviews proposed work, issues permits when required and checks construction against applicable rules.
Inspections are part of that process. They help identify problems while work is underway, when corrections may be easier to make, and support safer buildings across the community.
Requirements depend on the project. If you are planning construction or renovation, consult the official village site before beginning work.
