demolition. Separate permits are required for electrical work, plumbing, driveways,
water-freon-cooled air-conditioning units, fences, decks and porches. Permit fees vary
with the nature and scope of the work. Permits are issued at the Village Office in the
Building Department. Detailed plans must accompany permit applications. Commercial
construction requires approval of the Plan Commission and Village Board prior to issuance
of a permit.Commercial signs require Plan Commission approval and a permit.
A separate permit for sewers is required from the LaGrange Sanitary District before a
building permit is issued by the Village.

ordinance regulates land use, setbacks, side yards, rear yards,
heights, intensity of use and off-street parking.
