  • Calumet County shoreland zoning (Chapter 52) applies in all unincorporated (town) areas within 1,000 ft of a lake/pond/flowage or 300 ft of a navigable river or stream; a county permit may be needed near water.
  • Whether the Town has its own zoning ordinance was not found online.

Before you dig

Call Diggers Hotline at 811 (or file online at diggershotline.com) at least 3 business days before digging post holes. Find your lot corner markers and keep the fence on your side of the line.
