Street Opening Permits
In order to protect the integrity of all rights-of-way open to the public, assure the protection of all structures within and adjacent to these rights-of-way, and provide optimum safety and convenience for the public, permission must be obtained from the Department of Public Works before any cutting, obstruction or disturbance is undertaken within the public right-of-way.

Street opening regulations and permits can be obtained at the Town Hall, office of the Department of Public Works.
