Building Permits Do I need a permit? Probably. Building Permits are required for construction. Check with the Building Inspections Department at (952) 474-4755. The forms for the following permits are available here:
Licenses Required for Certain ContractorsThe City of Deephaven requires plumbers, gas fitters, electricians, tree trimmers and building contractors to be currently licensed by the City of Deephaven before they are able to work in the City. The City requires these contractors to be licensed for several reasons. First, the licensing process ensures that gas fitters, electricians and building contractors are currently licensed through the State of Minnesota, which provides some assurance that these contractors are qualified professionals and are more likely to provide better quality work. And second, licensing also requires these contractors to provide certificates of insurance demonstrating that they have proper insurance coverage in the event of an accident or some other unforeseen occurrence. Prior to hiring a contractor to perform work in your house or property, please contact City Hall to ensure that the contractor you have selected is properly licensed to perform work in the City of Deephaven.Xcel Energy .. the Electric Company

They are valid for one year and are available at the Police Department, which is located in the lower level of City Hall.
