The Town of Stowe does not have jurisdiction over the Vermont statewide building code. The required building permits are issued by the Vermont Division of Fire Safety. Most construction (except for single-family owner-occupied residential construction connected to a private water source) requires a state building permit. This includes all buildings that are rented (including single-family dwellings and duplexes), townhouses, and all commercial buildings.

Please note that other state permits and/or requirements may be required for various projects. You can contact a Vermont Permit Specialist at 802-477-2241 for assistance in identifying all necessary state permits or approvals for any given project.
