Wayne County Sheriff's Office Warning Wayne County residents should be aware that scammers masquerading as deputies are calling residents in an effort to defraud them. The following tips are offered to help people avoid being conned:
Renting Your Property - Residential It appears some property owners particularly in Resort, R15000 and R1A Districts, are unaware that rental of residential property on a short-term basis in these districts is only permitted by Special Permit from the Zoning Board of Appeals. A short-term rental is a rental for a two-week period or less. Should you have questions regarding rental of property in the Town of Huron, before committing yourself we recommend you contact the Building Department (315 594-8074 Ext. 2) or reference the Zoning Law Section 45.20 (gg) page 64 - click on "Laws" in the menu to the left of this notice.
Emergency Management - Emergency Response Help Wayne County Department of Emergency Management has in place a resource that has a potential for saving lives in case of emergency. There is a registration website for cell phone and land line users, http://www.smart911.com where individuals can register their personal information, giving emergency responders access to information that can facilitate saving valuable time in case of emergency. We encourage you to register.

Notice to Waterfront Property Owners A reminder to all waterfront property owners in the Town of Huron: Anything you plan to do today on or around your waterfront is most likely subject to oversight and regulatory authority which may involve the US Army Corps of Engineers, NYS Department of Environmental Conservation or other NYS Agency, or the Town of Huron Coastal Erosion or Dock and Mooring Laws. To safeguard against the cost of having to remove or undo something for lack of proper permitting or adherence to existing regulations, we encourage you to first check with the Huron Building Department as to what may be required.
