Building Permits
 
The City of Lester Prairie follows the state building code.  A majority of work done on your home will require a permit.  You should check before you start any work to verify what information is required to submit with your permit application.

Any window replacement that has a change in size or is an egress would not qualify under the flat general permit fee.

Please feel free to look for additional information on our inspectors website at: https://safebuilt.com/about/our-companies/mnspect.


Building permit applications and any required supplemental submittal documents can now be submitted online, follow the links below:
