Do I need a permit for residential demolition in Town of Henrietta?

Permit likely required

Most likely yes. Residential demolition usually requires a permit in New York. Confirm the specifics with Town of Henrietta.

DOL Industrial Code Rule 56 (12 NYCRR Part 56) requires an asbestos survey by a certified New York State asbestos inspector before demolition; a structure slated for demolition is not eligible for the homeowner exemption, so asbestos must be removed by a licensed asbestos contractor. The RCNYS covers removal and demolition of dwellings; the site plan must show the construction to be demolished and the structures that will remain (R106.2), and the owner must notify the building official of any utility disconnection (R111.3). In New York City, DOB will not issue a demolition or alteration permit for a building whose plans were submitted on or before April 1, 1987 without the asbestos certification required by the NYC Department of Environmental Protection (NYC Administrative Code section 28-106.1).
