Published scheduling rules
- If your water heater fails over a weekend, the Town generally allows replacement first with a permit obtained the next business day at the standard (non-doubled) fee — but confirm this with the Building Department at the time, since non-emergency after-the-fact permits are charged double. (Furnace / Water Heater Replacement Permit)
- Emergency water heater failures (e.g., over a weekend) may be repaired/replaced first with a permit obtained the next business day at standard (non-doubled) fee, per the Town's Building FAQs (Furnace / Water Heater Replacement Permit)
- Working without a required permit costs double the standard permit fee if discovered after the fact (100% additional per Sec. 18-4(a)(8)/18-4(b)(5)) — though genuine emergencies (e.g., a weekend water heater failure) are generally allowed to proceed first if a permit is obtained the next business day.
