From the Zoning Inspector Bruce Snyder – Check before starting your project

Before starting your project, be it a deck, a fence, a shed, remodeling or starting the big project please check with me to make sure the project meets the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). There is nothing worse than to start your project only to learn that the project does not comply with the UDO. We all want to keep Clear Lake the greatest place to live.

Message from the Marshal - - - BE NOSY! OBSERVE! REPORT!

Our Marshal & Deputy Marshals advise town residents and property owners to give your cottage a “lived in” look. You can do this by installing timers on interior lights in various rooms and having a neighbor check your cottage periodically. Also, it is a good idea to remove mailboxes and newspaper holders rather than placing tape on them to prevent papers and advertisement flyers from accumulating. The tape and/or accumulated papers shout “No One’s Home”!

Please be sure to update your owner information if you have moved or changed any other important information. You may use our Owner Information Link to make any changes that are necessary. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions. Thank you for your cooperation.
