Digging in Manchester
Manchester sits east of Hartford on the Hockanum River, which runs on to meet the Connecticut River in East Hartford. The southeast corner of town is less built up and includes the Case Mountain recreation area.
Manchester's Planning and Zoning Commission is also the town's Inland Wetlands Agency. Work in a wetland or watercourse, or within 100 feet of one, needs an inland wetlands permit.
Building permits come from the Building Inspection Division, and applications and payments go through its online permit system only.
Connecticut requires a Call Before You Dig request (811) at least two full working days before anyone digs with power equipment. When you hire a contractor, the contractor makes the call, and the utilities mark their lines.
On our jobs, we file the 811 request ourselves before the machine starts.
