Permits

A separate permit must be obtained by all owners, contractors, or builders
engaged in the replacement, repair or construction of Sanitary Sewers
and building services within the jurisdiction of the South Lyons Township
Sanitary District.

If your project is within the sewer service area of the South Lyons
Township Sanitary District, you are obligated to contact the District office
and comply with their permit requirements.

Following are General Provisions, Insurance Requirements, and Permit
Applications that can be downloaded and printed. Please contact our
office at the number(s) listed above with any questions.

Before a Sewer repair/disconnect/construction project can be completed an inspection
must be done and approved by our superintendent. If you complete your
job without an inspection you may be required to re-dig the project, so
that an inspection can be made.
