Permits
Due to the COVID-19 crisis we would request that all non-emergency building permit applications be delayed until further notice. Permit applications may be dropped off in a box located at the rear door of Town Hall closest to the pond. The fee schedules are located in the box, you may call the building department if you need assistance. Payments to be made by check only made out to the Town of Winchester. The applications will be picked up throughout the day Monday through Friday.
We understand that this is an inconvenience but our highest priority is to protect the health and safety of our residents and town employees.
We will be updating this announcement on a regular basis.
Inspections
The building department will be performing inspections on a limited basis based on need and safety to ensure that each dwelling has a working kitchen, a working bathroom, heat and electricity. All other inspection requests will be reviewed on a case by case basis. Subject to change, inspectors may be reached Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 9:30 am
