Get a Building Permit

The South Nyack Building Inspector reminds all residents that Building Permits are required for any home improvement other than general repairs and painting. In addition, Planning Board and possibly Zoning Board of Appeals approval is needed for any exterior change to the property.

The South Nyack Zoning Code is available for review at the Village Hall, the Nyack Library, and on-line (see link below). Applications need to be received by the Building Department 30 days before a scheduled Planning Board or Zoning Board meeting. Some applications will need to be reviewed by the Rockland County Department of Planning and so it is important to submit your application prior to construction.

Please call the Building Department with any questions at (845) 358-0244.
