Permits and rules in Shirley, MA
Painting needs no building permit from Shirley's building department. In a pre-1978 home, paid exterior work that disturbs more than 20 square feet of painted surface in total falls under Massachusetts lead-safe rules (454 CMR 22.00). In a local historic district, exterior changes seen from a public way need the commission's approval first; some districts review paint color, many do not.
