Building Department

At this time Building Permit Applications must be sent via regular mail or left in the drop box in front of Town Hall (to the left when facing the building). 

The Building Department will continue to process permits and inspect projects that fit the Governor’s definition and are “necessary to maintaining the safety, sanitation, and essential operation of residences, construction sites and projects, and needed facilities.” All other projects that do not meet that definition should be postponed.

All Building Permit Applications must include a Contract signed by the Owner(s) and please make sure the contact information for both the owner and the applicant is complete. 

Applications can be found on the Town web site hamiltonma.gov on the Building Department page. To contact our office please email permitting@hamiltonma.gov or call 978-626-5250. The mailing address is: Town Hall, Water Dept., 577 Bay Road, Hamilton MA 01982.
