Frequently Asked Questions
When do I need to get a permit from the Road Commission?
Anytime a person or business does any construction work in the road right-of-way (normally 66 feet wide - 33 feet each direction from the center of the road) they need to obtain a permit. This applies to driveway installation or any other construction type activity.
Permits are NOT needed to install a mailbox (please see FAQ 15 for more info).
Anyone found in violation of this permit policy is subject to a fine up to $250.
