Permit Application Forms

AS of MAY 22, 2024 Lots in all zones are limited to a maximum impervious coverage subject to the Zone the lot is located in. If your project involves new or expanded buildings or structures, you will need to complete the IMPERVIOUS AREA WORKSHEET. This will require plans and details that will require additional time on your end and may require a professional to complete.

AS of MAY 22, 2024: If your project involves work in the Front Setback area and you are located in a MUC, LV, MV, VC zone, footnote #30 of the Table of Dimensional Requirements now states: “Where the area from the back of curb or the edge of pavement to the lot line is less than 12 feet, a streetscape easement must be provided on the private lot to expand the area to at least 12 feet. The minimum setback for the building must be measured from the easement edge, at least 12 feet off the back of curb/edge of pavement.” In order to comply with this requirement, you must submit a survey showing the distance from the back of curb or the edge of pavement to the lot line and if this distance is less than 12 feet, provide a recorded streetscape easement benefiting the Town of Topsham on the private lot to expand the area to at least 12 feet.
