Driveway Permit Process

Step 1 - Fill out the Driveway Permit 

Step 2- Send in or drop off the Drive Way Permit at the Town Hall.

Step 3 - Once we receive your completed permit, it is given Designated Town Official. Within approximately 24-48 hours, Tom will travel to your home to look at the property/driveway.

Step 4 - When Designated Town Official gives the “okay, “ the resident is responsible to come to the town hall and/or send in the Permit Charges that will include a Driveway Bond (refundable after the job is completed, the procedures are followed correctly, and the final driveway is approved) and/or other fees.

Driveway Bond - $1,000 (refundable)

The Driveway Bond is refundable upon completion of the following: a) notice to the Town Clerk that the Project is Finished b) Inspection by Designated Town Official c) Town Board Approval

Utility-Right-of-Way - $100 (non-refundable) - For New Driveways

Utility-Boring in Right-of-Way - $300 (non-refundable) - For Re-pavement of Driveway

Step 5 - Once the job is complete, the resident should contact the Town Clerk at the Town Hall at 262-728-3471 or [email protected]ofdelavan.com, alerting us that the job is complete.

Step 6 - Designated Town Official will travel out to your property and inspect the driveway.

Step 7 - If all is good, our Designated Town Official will contact our Treasurer, who will reimburse you for your $1,000 bond. A check will be sent to you in the mail.
