Before
You Build
There are some preliminary steps you must take
before you can begin building. The first step is to apply at
the clerk's office. A survey map is also needed at the time
the application is completed. Your application will then go
to the zoning consultant for review. A zoning fee of $10 is
paid when application is completed. When zoning has been approved,
the building inspector will issue a building permit and appropriate
fees are paid then. If a variance is needed, a hearing will
be scheduled. This process may and can take up to a month, so
please be patient and start the paperwork early! |

Marriage
license fees increase to $40.00 effective August 1, 2003.
This is from the Department of Health. The base
cost of a marriage license is $30.00 and $10.00 for a certified
copy, which is mailed to the couple after the ceremony. The
State receives $22.50 for each license issued and the $17.50
will be retained by the Town. |
Is
Your Puppy Legal?
Any dog 4 months old must be licensed and have
a current rabies shot. If the dog is spayed or neutered, the
fee is $5.50; otherwise, it is $13.50. You can submit documentation
from your vet at the time of licensing. Although the town does
not have a leash law in effect, the County does impose a law
in the spring that requires all dogs to be tied up so they will
not chase deer.
Lost dog? If you
lose your dog, or find one, call my office and the dog control
officer will be contacted. Stray dogs are taken to the Oswego
City Animal Shelter where they remain for about five days and
then put up for adoption or put to sleep.
Dog Owners Take Notice!
No Owner Shall permit his dog to be at large in violation of
such order from the County Legislature, pursuant to Article
7 sections 122 and 123 Ag and Markets Law relating to quarantines
on dogs from now until April 30, 2006. |
