Keep in mind that you may need to fill out Form # NHDES-W-06-039 which is a "Shoreland Permit by Notification (PBN) Eligibility and Checklist" if your deck is within 250' of the water. You will need to submit that with a check to the State on Hazen Drive in Concord, NH.

If you're rebuilding an existing deck the Wolfeboro Building Inspector may or may not grant a building permit until such time as they have this form that you submitted (and received back with an approval) from the State. This State form is good for 5 years after approval from the State.

Once the State Form is approved then you can take it and request a Building Permit for the Wolfeboro Building Department and they should issue it should you not have any lot line set back issues that would then trigger a Board of Appeals
hearing. I assume the existing deck is grandfathered.

Again Note; The State Form may not need to be done "if" you are replicating everything exactly as you have now, but this is something the Wolfeboro Building Inspector has to rule on.

None of the above is meant to discourage you but rather tell you it may not be an easy cut and dry process. Been there, done that!
