The Code Enforcement Division of DOTS is the “building department" of the Town and is responsible for the effective, timely and consistent enforcement of local and state laws.  One of the major responsibilities of the Code Enforcement Division is the issuance of building permits, demolition permits and certificates of occupancy.  Prior to the issuance of any permit, Code Enforcement staff performs site inspections and conducts a full review, including coordination with our Engineering Division.

In addition, Code Enforcement is responsible for the review and issuance of several other permits including: steep slopes and wetlands permits, sign permits, alarm permits and prior to zoning letters and duplicate certificates of occupancy in connection with municipal searches.

Code Enforcement personnel include building inspectors, fire inspector and code enforcement officers. Their role is to investigate complaints regarding Town and NYS Building Codes and issuing violations and appearance tickets as well as to review building permit applications and determine whether one needs to bring a case before the Zoning Board of Appeals.   The Fire Inspector performs regular fire inspections on commercial and multi-family properties and acts as the Towns liaison to the Fire Advisory Board.

Code also encompasses parking enforcement and animal control in the Town and they investigate complaints concerning animal control (dog & cats) and provide parking enforcement (handicap & fire lanes) on commercial properties and issues violations and appearance tickets, when appropriate.
