Understanding Selinsgrove's Property Development Rules

Any substantial home improvement or commercial construction in Selinsgrove, PA, necessitates a clear understanding of the Borough's specific zoning regulations. These guidelines, detailed within the Selinsgrove Borough Code of Ordinances (specifically Chapter 27: Zoning), are designed to promote orderly development, protect the borough's unique character, and ensure the well-being of the community. Selinsgrove features various zoning districts, including Residential (R-1, R-2, R-3), Central Business District (CBD), General Commercial (C-1), Office Service (OS), and Recreation Conservation (RC), each with its own set of regulations.

For residential projects, regulations often dictate aspects like minimum lot sizes, building setbacks (front, side, rear), building height, and lot coverage. For instance, specific requirements apply to new constructions and expansions regarding lot dimensions and access. Union County Contracting possesses extensive knowledge of Selinsgrove's zoning laws and can effectively guide you through these complexities. We ensure your project is compliant from the outset, identifying necessary permits and assisting with documentation for services such as Home Additions, Basement Remodeling, Garage Remodeling, and Deck Remodeling. It's important to note that while structural changes often require permits, minor cosmetic updates like Drywall Repair & Painting or simply replacing existing siding with new Siding Installation might not, unless they impact structural elements or expand the building footprint. For any work involving significant changes like Tile & Stone Installations or Masonry that affects exterior walls or structural integrity, a permit is likely required.

We work closely with you to understand the specific requirements for your proposed work, whether it's a minor renovation or a large-scale project, making sure your project meets all local standards.

Initiating Your Selinsgrove Project: The Zoning Permit Process

Before beginning construction or significant renovation in Selinsgrove, obtaining the necessary permits, starting with the Selinsgrove Borough Zoning Permit Application, is a crucial first step. This application ensures your project aligns with the Borough's zoning ordinance. Required information typically includes details about the applicant and property owner, the site address, existing and proposed uses, and specific project details such as lot dimensions, setbacks, and building specifications.

The application generally requires a detailed site plan illustrating property dimensions, the location and size of all existing and proposed structures, and distances from property lines and driveways. Our team at Union County Contracting is highly experienced in preparing and submitting these applications. We assist in gathering all necessary documentation, including detailed site plans and building blueprints, to ensure a smooth and efficient approval process for your Kitchen and Bathroom Remodeling, Fireplace Remodeling, or any other service we offer that requires a zoning permit. We aim to streamline this often-complex process, saving you time and potential headaches, and helping your project get off the ground without delay.
