Green 608-244-0179 fax www.villageofmaplebluff.com GENERAL INFORMATION DISCLAIMER: This is an informational packet only. Maple Bluff building codes and municipal ordinances as well as state statutes are the legal standards governing building and construction practices. It is not intended that this packet conflict or interfere with any ordinance or statute. If any discrepancies are identified between this brochure and any legal document, the ordinance or statute governs. BUILDING PERMITS & REVIEW BY BUILDING BOARD The Village of Maple Bluff issues and enforces building permits. However, there is a Building Board that reviews and approves requests for permits. The Building Board shall hear and approve or disapprove all applicants' requests including but not limited to new construction, additions to any existing structure, new windows, window modifications in terms of proportion, size, detail, color and/or function, new and replacement windows, exterior siding, new or replacement fences, swimming pools, tennis courts, retail/commercial signs in the "A" Business District, miscellaneous and accessory buildings including storage sheds, play structures and alterations which involve a significant change in the exterior appearance of an existing structure. Projects which do not require the approval of the Building Board but still require a building permit include driveways, interior remodels, mechanical installations, roof replacements and identical window replacements which conform to the original design intent of the structure as determined by the Village Administrator. THE PERMIT PROCESS: It is highly recommended that prior to starting the permit process you review this packet direct questions that you may have to buildingboard@villageofmaplebluff.com. The next step will be to submit your application materials to the Village Office during normal business hours (Mon-Fri 7:30-4:30) or online (villageofmaplebluff.com). Application materials will include detailed plans, photos and other materials as identified in the APPLICATION MATERIAL CHECKLIST included in this packet. Those plans are reviewed by the Building Inspector for zoning compliance, though the ultimate responsibility for zoning compliance rests with the applicant. The application materials are then presented to the Village Building Board at a public meeting. Plans are reviewed with the homeowner or other representative to verify compliance with standards established by municipal ordinance and state statute. Those standards can be found in this packet and are entitled, BUILDING BOARD CHECKLIST. 1 THE BUILDING BOARD: The Building Board consists of seven citizens, as least one of whom is a member of the Village Board of Trustees and serves as chair. The Building Board reviews all submitted applications on which it is proposed to erect or alter a structure. The Building Board will hear a presentation on the submitted application from the applicant and/or the owner of the lot where the project is to take place. The Building Board may also hear any other persons, whether neighboring residents or property owners, desiring to be heard regarding your project. The Building Board will then approve or deny the submitted application based upon standards established within the Building and Zoning Codes. If the application is approved, the Building Inspector will issue a building permit for the project. FILING DEADLINE: The Building Board usually meets the second Tuesday of each month starting at 5:15pm. ALL application materials MUST be submitted NOT LATER THAN 2:00 p.m., two weeks prior to the meeting date. You may refer to the checklist in this brochure for a complete list of the required application materials. IF ALL REQUIRED MATERIALS ARE NOT SUBMITTED BY THE FILING DEADLINE, YOUR PROJECT WILL NOT BE INCLUDED ON THE AGENDA. You will then need to wait until the following meeting to have your project heard. BUILDING BOARD MEETING: The Building Board agenda is finalized on the filing deadline for application materials. You should plan to arrive at the Village Center at the designated starting time of the meeting. During the meeting, you will have opportunity to present your project. It is also common for general contractors or architects to attend the meeting and present the project. You should have a complete and final description of all materials to be used during your project. In many cases, applicants bring samples to the Building Board meeting. You should refer to the submitted materials during your presentation. After your presentation, Building Board members may ask questions regarding details of the project. Neighbors or other residents will be given an opportunity to speak about your project if they choose. After a discussion period, the Building Board Chair will entertain a motion concerning your project. The Building Board will then vote in consideration of the motion. After approval by the Building Board, you will meet with the Building Inspector to obtain all permits required for your project. FEES: The fee structure for building permits is approved by the Village Board. You may request a copy of the fee structure from the Building Inspector or the Clerk’s Office. All fees must be paid prior to the commencement of the project. 2 YOU SHOULD ALSO BE AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING: • Building Board members may come to your home to view the site of the project before the meeting. • In most cases, projects can be approved in one meeting with the Building Board. For larger projects, especially new construction, there is a minimum of a two step process before approval. The first step is a schematic design review that focuses on site plan, building massing, relation to structures on adjacent properties, exterior elevations and building materials. The second step is a comprehensive review that is a thorough evaluation of the site plan, floor plans, elevation drawings, building materials and landscaping plan. In the case of larger projects or new home construction, the Building Board may also set up a special meeting to hear your request. • All projects that include land disturbance require a clearance of all utilities which can be accomplished by calling Diggers Hotline at 1-800-242-8511 to locate said utilities. REFERENCES Zoning Code information is available on the Village website – www.villageofmaplebluff.com. We have included in this packet a copy of the Building Board’s Checklist for reviewing projects. In this document, you will have the requirements and guidelines that Building Board members follow in reviewing your project. Other ordinances that you may want to consider is the Zoning Code and the Stormwater and Erosion Control Ordinance. There is additional information included in this packet on the application for Erosion Control and Stormwater Management. APPEALS Persons who are denied permits have due process options available to review those decisions. Appeals to the Zoning Board of Appeals may be taken by any person aggrieved or by an officer, department, board or bureau of the Village within 30 days after the act appealed from by filing with the Building Inspector a notice of appeal specifying the grounds thereof. The Building Inspector shall forthwith transmit to the Board of Appeals the notice of appeal and all papers constituting the record upon which the action appealed from was taken. The Board shall fix a reasonable time for the hearing of the appeal, give public notice thereof, as well as due notice to the parties in interest and decide the same within a reasonable time. Upon the hearing any party may appear in person or by agent or attorney. 3 BUILDING BOARD APPLICATION MATERIAL CHECKLIST **Application materials submitted in pursuit of a building permit for review in front of the BUILDING BOARD MUST include the following: [ ] Name, current address, and phone numbers of applicant(s).

Applicants shall be required to demonstrate that all exterior lighting will not spill onto neighboring properties. [ ] 3. Utility Service. It is the goal of the Village of Maple Bluff to eliminate overhead wiring within the Village. To this end, owners of property within the Village, working with the Madison Gas and Electric Company, telephone, and cable television licensees, shall, in all new developments and major additions, make provision for underground service. Whenever possible this shall be accomplished during building development and construction. When it is not possible, certification to the fact that provisions have been made for the timely placement of service underground, signed by representatives of each company, shall appear on plans submitted to the Maple Bluff Building Board for review. 6 [ ] 4.

A. No person shall const ruct, alter or enlarge a f ence without obtaining a building permit, and the Building Board shall have first determined that the f ence, when constructed , altered or enlarged, will not be unreasonably detrimental to the neighboring properties or the Village in terms of appearance, ma terials, design, location, and the resulting restriction of light, air or view. B. All applications for fences shall be subject to the criteria set forth in t he design review provisions contained in this chapter and the statement of policy contained in this article.[1] [1] Editor's Note: See Arts. V and VI of this chapter and § 225-75 of this article. C. All fences sha ll generally be constructed of materials, preferably cedar or similar wood, which tend to blend in to the surroundings. Painted fences shall be discouraged. D. Boundary fences which ar e erected along a lot line for the purpose of enclosing a lot and/or creating a barrier between lots shall have a minimum six-inch side and rear yard s etback and shall be limited to re ar yards, although an exception may be allowed for corner lots or other lots involving unique circumstances. E. No fence erected in residential districts shall exceed a height of six f eet above ground level. An exception to th is height limitation may be al lowed where the purpose of the fence is to block the view of a commercial property or pro vide privacy from incompatible u ses, in which case, at the discretion of the Building Board, a fence may be allowed within a range of a maximum of eight feet above ground level and a minimum of four feet above ground level. F.

The Village has adopted by Ordinance the Dane County model regulations. A copy of this ordinance is available for a reproduction fee upon request. COMPLIANCE: Village staff has incorporated our Erosion Control and Stormwater Management process into our building permit process. In the “Application Material Checklist”, you will find that you must submit application materials related to your Erosion and Stormwater Management plan for your property during construction, if applicable. Please review the following document closely to help determine applicability to your project. In general, every project will need to address Erosion Control issues at the project site. Not all projects will need to meet Stormwater Management requirements. Additional compliance may be regulated by NR216 (Stormwater permit) and/or NR151 (Post Construction). You will be notified if these regulations apply to your project. PROCESS: After submitting your completed Erosion Control and Stormwater Management plan, it will be reviewed by our Public Works Director for compliance with our Ordinance. It is then forwarded to the Building Inspector to verify site compliance with erosion control before, during, and after construction until the site is stabilized. APPLICATION MATERIALS In the following pages you will find the information needed to complete an Erosion Control & Stormwater Management Plan. The first page will detail the regulations and other resources. The next two pages are documents to help you complete the Erosion Control Plan Diagram. The final page is the overall Erosion Control Management Plan. These documents, to include the site diagram, will need to be completed and submitted as a part of your application materials. 10 PLAN LEGEND TD PLAN LEGEND MAPLE BLUFF EROSION CONTROL PLAN –SIMPLIFIED CHECKLIST THIS FORM MAY BE USED FOR ONLY THE FOLLOWING: (CHECK ONE) ____ Land disturbing activities administered by Maple Bluff under the Wisconsin Uniform Dwelling Code (UDC). ____ Land disturbing activities administered under the Maple Bluff erosion control ordinance whenever all three of the following conditions exist *: (A) The land disturbance is not more than 20,000 square feet in area.
