It’s never too early to see if a project you are considering at the lake meets the standards of the Town’s Unified Development Ordinance. Generally, the town requires an Improvement Location Permit (ILP) for decks, fences, sheds, generators, concrete work, new structures, and other projects involving modifications to existing structures or driveways.
Upon TOCL issuing an ILP, the homeowner/contractor is responsible for obtaining a Steuben County Building Permit - 260-668-1000 ex 1250
