Tips

  • Both the Town's general permits page ('Over the Counter - 0-3 business days') and the Building Division's detailed process flow chart ('Residential Over-the-Counter and Demo Applications 0-3 Business Days') agree on this timeframe — it is a doubly-confirmed, verified figure.
  • A Combo OTC permit bundling multiple trades (e.g., a water heater replacement needing both plumbing and electrical) is more economical than separate single-trade OTC permits: $90 flat plus $30 per additional trade, versus $90 each.
  • OTC permits carry a smaller non-refundable retention on cancellation ($25 or 25%, whichever is greater) compared to standard building permits ($50 or 25%).
  • New for FY2026-27: the adopted schedule adds a parallel 'Commercial Over the Counter Permits' block immediately below the residential one, listing Electrical, Mechanical, Plumbing and Building at the same $90 each, annotated in the change column 'We are seeking to allow for OTC permits for commercial in addition to residential.' Until FY2026-27 the OTC track was residential-only. The Town has not published a commercial Combo line, so confirm with the Building Division whether the $90 + $30-per-added-trade Combo structure extends to commercial work.
