About Our Department
The Building Department administers and enforces the New York State
Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code and all ordinances, rules and
regulations of the Village of Woodbury relating to building construction,
repair, demolition, use and occupancy of buildings and property within
the Village. The Building Department is located in Woodbury Town Hall in Highland Mills, pictured at the top of this page. The department also processes applications for the Zoning
Board of Appeals and the Planning Board. There is one full time Building
Inspector, one part time building inspector, one part time Fire Marshal,
and two full time clerks. A consulting engineer works closely with the
Building Department. The Zoning Board of Appeals agenda is compiled by
the Building Department staff. Burning permits are also issued to
homeowners for small brush piles (weather permitting). All complaints
must be made in writing. Forms are available in hardcopy at the Building Department Office and electronically here.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Village have a Master Plan and Comprehensive Zoning Regulations?
Yes. To preserve the integrity of the community, an updated Master Plan
and revised zoning regulations were adopted in 1988. The Master Plan has
provisions for industrial park development, corporate centers, and
retail centers. Copies of the zoning regulations, zoning maps, and
subdivision ordinance are available in the Building Department. The
Master Plan may be reviewed in the Town Clerk's office. The Village is currently in the process of replacing the 1988 Master Plan with an updated Comprehensive Plan. It is anticipated that a draft will be available for public review in the early months of 2008, with adoption to follow shortly thereafter.
When and where does the Planning Board meet?
The Planning Board meets on the first and third Wednesday of each month
at 7:00PM in Woodbury Town Hall, 511 Route 32, Highland Mills. An agenda
is set prior to each meeting. Only scheduled items are discussed.
Applications for the Planning Board may be obtained in hardcopy at the Building
Department and electronically here.
When and where does the Zoning Board of Appeals meet?
When there are practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships in
carrying out the strict letter of the Village's zoning regulations, the
Zoning Board of Appeals has the authority to issue special permits
and/or variances, provided the public convenience, safety and welfare
are substantially served and the integrity of neighboring properties are
not injured. The Zoning Board of Appeals meets on the fourth Wednesday
of each month at 7:30PM in Woodbury Town Hall, 511 Route 32, Highland
Mills. Applications for the Zoning Board may be obtained in hardcopy at the Building Department and electronically here.
