Village of Fox Point, WI Permits

Building, zoning, and trade permit types administered by Fox Point

How permitting works in Fox Point

Wisconsin Uniform Dwelling Code (SPS 320–325) applies statewide to 1- & 2-family dwellings; municipalities (or their contracted UDC inspectors) administer it locally. Commercial buildings follow SPS 361–366 with DSPS or delegated plan review. Zoning, fences, signs, and right-of-way work are regulated by local ordinance; shoreland/floodplain standards flow from NR 115/116 via county and municipal ordinances.

Building Permit Application

Verified official form

Official Village of Fox Point building permit application (7200 N Santa Monica Blvd, Fox Point, WI 53217; 414-247-6622). All applications must include one complete set of plans and specifications; work proposed to the exterior of a property must be submitted to the Building Board for approval. The packet lists per-project-type submittal requirements (survey, open-area calculation, site plan, elevations, footing/foundation plan, structural details, etc.); driveways need no permit but require a three-foot side-yard setback. Homeowner applicants must sign the page-4 cautionary statement (s. 101.65(1r) Wis. Stats.) and wetlands / ch. NR 151 notices. Work started without a permit is charged double fees. GovCodex output is a planning aid, not permit approval.
