Thinking of a Spring Project?

The Tanglwood Lakes Building Code Committee is responsible for ensuring that all construction undertaken with the community is in accordance with the TLCA Rules and Regulations and Building Codes.

Any interior renovation or update does not require a permit. However a permit is required for many exterior projects as well as new construction and additions. The Board recently amended the Permit Application Process. A copy is printed here and is also available for download on our website or paper copy can be obtained at the Chalet Office. Additionally, questions about walls, tree removal, contractors, surveys, or liability insurance can be answered by calling the Office for details.
