Wrecking Permit
No person may raze or demolish a building or salvage from a vacated building, without first obtaining a permit from the City of Chilton. There shall be full compliance with all City codes as well as State and Federal laws, rules or regulations which may be applicable.
If the building that is to be removed is serviced by sanitary sewer, an inspection of the abandonment must be completed prior to the demolishing. Contact City Hall at (920) 849-2451 Ext. 301 to schedule an appointment.
An approved Wrecking Permit is MANDATORY in order to have the Assessor remove the structure from the tax roll, along with the property owner scheduling an appointment with the Building Inspector for final inspection of the demolition or removal of structure when completed. Structure will not be removed from the tax roll until the final inspection is complete.
