Municipalities — land-disturbing construction permits

Pursuant to a court order, the Town of Raymond remediated alterations Raymond and Mary Jane Vogt made to a drainage ditch on their property without a permit. The Vogts challenge the trial court’s finding that, under a Town ordinance, their work was a “land-disturbing construction activity” that required a permit. They appeal the order that they pay the Town nearly $62,000 in expenses, costs, daily forfeitures, and surcharges. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
