A grading or fill permit is required for any project over 10,000 square feet. The term “fill” refers to an act by which soil, sand, rock, or other materials are deposited or placed by a person or machine at another location and the resulting conditions. Please direct grading and filling questions to the Site Development Coordinator, by email at zoning@co.madison.il.us or by phone at (618) 296-4468.
Clean fill refers to site-derived and transported soils, uncontaminated broken concrete without rebar, bricks, rock, stone, reclaimed asphalt pavement, and dirt or sand generated from construction or demolition activities which may be properly placed in lifts to achieve a level of compaction required for proper foundation support.
