Village Code of Ordinances

** The Village's Code of Ordinances is posted on our website as a convenience to Residents and Contractors working in the Village.

** The Village's Official Code of Ordinances is maintained at the Village Hall, 810 Shorewood Boulevard, Madison, WI.

** To the best of our knowledge the codes listed on this website are accurate in content if not format. But, if you are doing research for a building project or other legally binding activity, it is recommended that you consult with a Village official and not rely solely on the codes found here.

** Some recently approved ordinances may not have been incorporated into the text of the Code yet. Go to New Ordinances to see if any apply to your project.
