Kirkwood’s Building and Code Enforcement office is at 41 Francis Street, with Monday through Thursday office hours and Friday by appointment. Because of the limited hours, residents should call early to make sure someone is available.
For a building permit, inspection question, or state/town code question, that means the next step is not just downloading a form. Call the office, confirm the inspector or clerk is available, and ask what drawings, site information, fee, or inspection timing the town expects before work begins.
Keep the property address, project description, drawings or site information, fee question, and inspection timing ready for the call. Confirm that someone will be at the office before driving to 41 Francis Street, especially for a Friday visit.
