Departments
In local government, it’s very clear to your customers – your citizens – whether or not you’re delivering. Either that pothole gets filled in, or it doesn’t. The results are very much on display, and that creates a very healthy pressure to innovate.

Zoning determines where items can be placed on a property. Zoning also regulates what uses can go where. Such as, before a business starts up or property is purchased or leased for a use, zoning should be contacted to determine if the proposed use is legal there.

Bay View Tree Ordinance
We would like to remind folks that we have many ordinances on the books. If you are doing any type of work at your home you should first check to see if there is a permit needed. We have been seeing many of the marker trees being taken down. There is an active tree ordinance which states that anyone wishing to take a marker tree down must first get a permit from the Mayor free of charge. For a tree permit please call the Mayor at 419-503-1044 and for all other permits please call the Zoning Inspector Steve at 419-366-9011 The tree permit also requires that no stump stays behind. The stump must be ground to below grade and we highly recommend that the tree be replaced with your choice of tree. We are also in the process of obtaining some tree saplings that will be offered free of charge. It is our goal to keep the beauty of our Village with trees for the future. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
