Required
Permit process
The Town's About page states, under "Building Permits and Licensing": "The Town of Otis does require building permits and are reviewed monthly during the monthly Town Council meeting. Building permit fee is $30." No exemption for small structures, no roofing-specific carve-out or fee, and no separate application form or online portal is described. The site has no dedicated Building Department page (unlike the Town's Home, Town Information, Town Council, Contact, Pay My Bill, and TextMyGov nav items, none of which cover building/permitting beyond this About-page paragraph). Off-road vehicles and golf carts are separately noted as requiring permits inside Town limits. For more information the page directs residents to Otis Town Hall at 970-246-3235 or [email protected].
