The Village Board recently approved two new ordinances which establish provisions and fees for the registration of contractors engaged in the building and construction trades and in the installation of fire alarm and suppression systems. As part of the application process, the contractors will have to provide accurate business contact information, require proof of qualifications and provide a surety bond to protect the Village and residents. The fee for registration is $100 per calendar year per contractor. Homeowners may call the Building & Zoning Department to see if a contractor is registered.
