Village Documents

Introduction & Helpful Information:

Provided here is a list of permits for use as part of the Zoning for Chimney Rock Village.  In most cases, only one permit will be required. Yet, there are special circumstances where addendum applications may be requested and required.

 

General Process & Timelines:

You're encouraged to contact the Zoning Administrator prior to initiating any activity that may require a zoning review or some type of zoning permit.  Any necessary fees must be paid in advance before any reviews begin.

Depending on the permit requested, time frames from receipt of your application through consideration, and any final approvals by the Village Council may take up to four weeks or more.

Please keep these considerations in mind. There is usually a minimum of 4-6 weeks for basic compliance requests. That time frame can be longer for applications requiring a public hearing or for more complex and detailed zoning compliance matters.

Note that the Rutherford County Building Inspection Department will not issue a building permit until your project/activity has been approved by Chimney Rock Village and the correct Zoning Compliance Permit has been approved.

For Additional Information, contact Zoning Administrator, Stephen G Duncan, (828) 777-5718  or Email him here
