Permits
Re-siding and the Babylon building department
The Town of Babylon Building Department says "A building permit is required before starting any construction or alteration project on real property" and lists examples such as roof replacement where plywood is removed. Its page does not mention siding, so ask the department before a re-side, especially if sheathing or framing will be replaced (Babylon Building Department).
The department is at Babylon Town Hall, West Wing, 200 East Sunrise Highway, Lindenhurst, NY 11757, (631) 957-3058. If you live in an incorporated village, such as Amityville, Babylon or Lindenhurst, ask the village as well.
