- A building site permit ($100, issued by the Town Clerk) is required for any building costing over $1,000 and before excavation or construction of any building or structure; fences are not specifically mentioned.

- Town Clerk: Sara Rudie, 608-452-3966, [email protected].
- Vernon County has no countywide zoning (it administers shoreland, floodplain, wetland and sanitary rules in unincorporated areas, 608-637-5270); its Land & Water Reference Guide says to contact the Town Chairman about building permits and fencing laws.
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. County parcel maps can be off by several feet; if you're not sure where the line is, a licensed land surveyor can stake it.
