Commercial Information & Handouts
A building permit and SAC Determination are required prior to any change of tenant or building use to ensure the new use complies with the City of Chaska's zoning regulations and building codes. If there is no construction work in the space, a "Change of Use" building permit can be filled out and submitted along with a SAC Determination from the Metropolitan Council.
