Building & Zoning

The Code Enforcement Officer is responsible for the issuance of permits and the enforcement of the New York State Building Code and the Caledonia Town Code. The Code Enforcement Officer inspects projects for which permits have been issued to ensure that construction complies with approved plans and regulations. Upon project completion, following a final inspection to ensure that finished work meets all applicable codes and standards, the Code Enforcement Officer issues a certificate of occupancy or certificate of compliance.

The department is responsible for enforcing the Town’s local zoning codes, responding to property complaints, administering and carrying out the decisions of the Planning Board and the ZBA, coordinating these boards with other town/village, county, and state agencies.
