When no public portal matches
These contacts are for communities without a public EC search we have indexed, or as a supplemental path. Always verify on the official page.
Request existing drawings/plans/documents through DOB records workflow, not an EC-specific public lookup. Records availability varies. No request submitted and no account used.
Official FOIL checklist explicitly lists Elevation Certificates as frequently requested records. Existing records only; reproduction charges may apply. No request submitted. Verify current form with Clerk before filing.
Official flood guidance says ask for Building Department; published for map/floodplain assistance. Ask whether EC/building records exist; EC retention not established by this page. Town only, not a Nassau County-wide records service. Prefer phone routing rather than promising a working URL.
Official page: Building Department maintains ECs; contact to see if one is on file (46 N Ocean Ave). No public list.
Official CRS page: to see ECs on file, visit the Building Department at this address. No phone/email for ECs stated on that page.
