Other rules to know

  • Ordinance 99-7 (Village Building Inspection and Permit Ordinance) requires a permit to 'raze, alter, build, add onto any building' within scope of residential accessory structures, outbuildings and swimming pools. Fences are not named, so a fence permit requirement is not confirmed. Fees are set by resolution.
  • Village website lists building inspector All Croix Inspections, Corp., 1810 Crest View Dr. 1C, Hudson, WI 54016, 715-377-2152, [email protected]; a zoning administrator is not listed. A Bay City Zoning Districts document is on the village site but was not read.

Before you dig

Call Diggers Hotline at 811 (or file online at diggershotline.com) at least 3 business days before digging post holes. Find your lot corner markers and keep the fence on your side of the line. County parcel maps can be off by several feet; if you're not sure where the line is, a licensed land surveyor can stake it.
