BUILDING

Building permits are required for a variety of residential and commercial projects.  By obtaining a permit for your project, you will have the peace of mind that the work being performed will meet the state building code.  Our inspectors are dedicated to ensuring that projects are completed in a correct and safe manner.  A cease work order may be placed at anytime on unpermitted projects until the permit process has been fulfilled and you may be subject to additional fees.  If you are hiring a contractor, it is advised that they fill out and sign the permit application.  If you are taking on a DIY project, please include the Licensed Contractor Disclaimer form with your application.

ZONING

Zoning applications are required for fencing, decking, flag pole & sign installation, amongst other projects.  A permit is also needed anytime you are adding to the square footage of impervious surface on your property.  If it is necessary to find your property pins for a given project, the City of Freeport will provide free daily rental of a metal detector.  If you are making changes to your property, please reach out to city staff to verify if a permit is needed or not.
