Ensuring Sustainable Growth in Frenchville

Our team works diligently to ensure that land use activities within Frenchville not only comply with our Comprehensive Plan and local ordinances but also honor our commitment to preserving the charming character of our community.

Our Areas of Expertise

We are involved in a range of services that support Frenchville’s orderly growth and preservation, from the Planning Board and Board of Appeals to development review processes, historic preservation, and proactive land use management.

Inspections and Permitting

Ensuring the safety and well-being of our residents and guests is a top priority. We oversee sanitation inspections for restaurants and lodging, license compliance, property maintenance, land use adherence, and floodplain management.

When it’s time to build or renovate, remember to connect with us for your permit needs. We issue building, plumbing, and septic, permits to keep your projects on track and compliant. It’s essential to file a ‘Land Use Permit’ application with our office well in advance—ideally a month before starting work, especially for projects near water bodies and wetlands.

Start Your Application Process

Application forms are available at the Frenchville Town Office during business hours, and can also be viewed/printed below. Building Permits are $20.00. Plumbing & Septic permit fees vary and are available at the town office.

By working together, we can ensure that the integrity of our natural environment is maintained while accommodating the growth and enhancements that make Frenchville a desirable place to call home.
