A road opening permit is required when a party wishes to excavate within a Township right of way for any reason.

The permit application is reviewed to make certain necessary safety measures are adhered to as well as ensure that the appropriate back fill and pavement standards are implemented. Detailed plans must accompany the application.

The application form and additional information is available in the Department of Community Development, Division of Engineering.
