Town of Marlborough, Connecticut

Just an update: The fire department and CERT team have plenty of masks and other personal protective equipment, THANK YOU, TO EVERYONE WHO ASKED!!!

The virus continues to move in and around our town from the NYC area. We're into what will be a 6-8 week wave of infections in CT. President Trump has extended social distancing guidelines through at least April 30. Assume there are undocumented cases in Marlborough. Please stay home and hunker down. Limit your contact with others. Keep the kids home. Don't touch your face. Wash your hands often and for at least 20 seconds with soap and warm water.

In order to do our part to “flatten the curve”, the Town Clerk’s office is now closed to the public for non-essential activities. We will be doing business electronically, over the phone and through the mail.
We will still accept and process absentee ballot applications, accept and issue vital records and land record recordings.
Please note, the Connecticut Presidential Preference Primary has been rescheduled to June 2, 2020.
Absentee ballot applications can be accessed here:
https://portal.ct.gov/-/media/sots/ElectionServices/ElectForms/electforms/aabengpdf.pdf?la=en
Once you have completed your application you can put it in the lock box located outside Town Hall, or mail it back to us. Your absentee ballot will be mailed to you when it becomes available.
Vital record registrations: If you are from a funeral home, please call the town clerk’s office at 295-6206 to make an appointment.
Vital record requests: If you are looking for a copy of a birth, death or marriage certificate, fill out the appropriate request form (which can be found on the town clerk’s page of the website) mail it in or put it in the drop box for same day processing. PLEASE DO NOT PUT CASH IN THE DROP BOX.
Land record recording: Please mail or leave in the drop box for processing, or you can call the 295-6206 to make an appointment.
Land records can be viewed and printed from our online portal: https://recordhub.cottsystems.com/
If you need a map, please call for further assistance.
Transfer station/Blish Park stickers can be obtained at the transfer station if you bring something proving residency, or through the mail with a request form.
We will not be doing notary public work at this time. We are very sorry for any inconvenience.

PERMIT APPLICATIONS
Permit applications will continue to be received via mail, email or placed in drop box currently located outside of Town Hall. Permit applications can be found on the Town Hall Website. www.marlboroughct.net
Included with the permit application should be applicable drawings, a copy of your trade license and certificate of insurance (with workers comp) or a filled out 7A form, and the permit fee in the form of a check.
The permit fee schedule is as follows: $35 for the first $1,000 and $12 for each $1,000 after that.
EXAMPLE: if the cost of the project is $3,000, then it would be $35+$12+$12= $59 permit fee. A project with an estimated cost of $3,300 would be rounded up and would be $35+$12+$12+12= $71.
Please call or email to verify the permit fee or if you have any additional questions on your application.

INSPECTIONS
No inside Residential Inspections will be done at this time.
Exterior Inspections i.e. pressure tests, or final roofing, as well as inspections of non-occupied structures (new construction/commercial) will continue with caution at this time. Prior to entry, the structure will be cleared of all people until the inspection is complete and the Building Official has exited the building.
Photos and or videos may be acceptable in many more instances. Guidelines for acceptance of photo and video inspections will be posted on the Building Department webpage.

Please note these guidelines are subject to change.

We are making our best effort to protect Public and Staff health while maintaining some level of progress.
We appreciate your patience during this time.

The COVID-19 outbreak has led many of us to use disposable disinfecting wipes more frequently. The packaging says “Flushable “ but they aren’t. They clog grinder pumps. They constrict service piping. Even our pumping facilities are not immune from the havoc they cause. Please put them in the                                                trash- don’t flush them down the toilet.

Should our repair technicians find your grinder pump failed thanks to wipes, you will be liable for the repair costs.
