BUILDING
DEPARTMENT MISSION STATEMENT:
The primary function of the
Building Department is to insure the health, safety and general welfare of the
public. This is accomplished by:
- Performing plan reviews
- Issuing permits and conducting inspections to
insure compliance with the Connecticut State Building Code and local
ordinances.
- Issuing necessary orders and notices to remove
illegal or unsafe conditions.
- Requiring the necessary safeguards during
construction and demolition of structures.
- Interpreting and providing guidance regarding all
applicable codes to Architects, Engineers, contractors, developers and other
interested parties.
- Reviewing applications with the Town Planner, Town
Engineer, Fire Marshal, Chatham Health District, along with various other
local, state, and federal agencies as required.
A permit is required whenever any owner or
authorized agent intends to construct, enlarge, alter, repair, move, demolish,
or change the occupancy of a building or structure, or to erect, install,
enlarge, alter, repair, remove, convert or replace any electrical, gas,
mechanical, or plumbing system.
 |
A report is
prepared by the Building Department each month with information on the number
of permits issued along with the types of permits the construction value and
fees collected.

PERMIT
PROCESS:
It generally takes 2-3 days for applications not
requiring a plan review and 2-weeks for applications requiring plan reviews.
The Connecticut State Building Code gives us up to 30-days to either deny or
approve an application for a permit.
Please be aware the Town of
Hebron has an ordinance stating that no application for a building permit,
certificate of occupancy, sewer or septic permit or any other municipal permit
shall be granted if the property owner is delinquent on taxes, sewer
assessments and sewer use charges for the premises.
The following
forms are available online in either pdf format or screen fillable word
document. The application forms are also available at the Building
Department.
In addition to the application form you may
also require approval from the Chatham Health District. Generally you will need
to complete a B-100a form whenever you are planning on an addition, building a
pool, shed or deck or finishing off additional interior space when you have a
private sewage disposal system on your property. You may also be required to
renew your permit to discharge for your sewage disposal system. These forms can
be located at www.chathamhealth.org/forms.htm.
Please contact
the Building Department either by phone or email in order to determine the
correct fees for your particular project.
I WOULD LIKE INFORMATION ON?
INSPECTIONS:
Individuals requesting an
inspection need to give our office a minimum of 24 hours notice. Please talk to
one of the staff members directly when requesting an inspection.
We
will not be able to perform an inspection if the permit has not been
issued.
