The following is offered as a friendly reminder to all Bremen residents who are contemplating any construction-related activity on their property including but not limited to new construction, expansion, relocation, replacement, demolition, clearing, change of use, and road building. Under those circumstances, residents should do the following to see what is allowed, what ordinances apply, and what might require a permit:

Consult the appropriate Town ordinances, which are on the Town’s website under “Ordinances & Comprehensive Plan.”
Consult the Town Code Enforcement Officer. His contact information can be found under “Employees.”
The Planning Board meets monthly to hear applications for building in the Shoreland Zone, some commercial building depending on the project, and subdivisions.

The following options also are available:

Those with permits requiring Planning Board approval can apply for an informal, non-binding, pre-application conference with the Planning Board.
The Town and its staff stand ready to help residents through any construction-related activity. Prospective applicants must take the first step to consult the appropriate ordinance before construction begins. After-the-fact permits are not automatically granted and are very expensive to acquire. If an after-the-fact permit is not granted and a violation has occurred, the applicant may be required to undo what has been done at his or her expense.

Thank you.
