You need a permit for most construction projects, including:

Zoning Permit Application

A Zoning Permit ensures your project meets the City’s zoning rules before construction begins.

Sign Permit

A Sign Permit is required for most permanent and temporary signs to ensure safety, visibility, and compliance with city regulations.

Conditional Use Permit

A Conditional Use Permit (CUP) allows special land uses that aren’t normally permitted in your zoning district but may be allowed with review and conditions.

Raze / Demolish Permit

A Demolition (Raze) Permit is required to remove or tear down any structure in the City of Richland Center. This ensures safety, proper disposal, and compliance with state and local rules.

Rezone Request

A Rezoning Request changes the zoning classification of your property to allow a different type of use than currently permitted.

Land Split Request

A Land Split is required when dividing, combining, or adjusting property lines to ensure lots meet zoning and subdivision rules.

Variance Application

A Variance allows relief from strict requirements of the zoning ordinance when unique property conditions make compliance difficult. Variances are granted only in special circumstances and must meet legal standards.
