Permits
Village or Town: who handles permits in Broadalbin
The office that handles a permit depends on where the property sits. Broadalbin has a village and a town, and each has its own code enforcement.
Inside the Village of Broadalbin
Village Code Enforcement Officer, 16 West Main Street, PO Box 6, Broadalbin, NY 12025.
Phone (518) 706-6119.
A small part of the village lies in the Town of Mayfield. Ask the village office if you are near that line.
Outside the village
The Town of Broadalbin runs its own code enforcement department for properties outside the village.
Lake roads and hamlets outside the village fall under the town. Your electrician can confirm which office applies.

Outages
National Grid outages in the Broadalbin area
National Grid supplies power in Broadalbin. National Grid owns the poles, lines and meter. You own the meter socket, panel and wiring past it.
On August 12, 2020, nearly 8,000 customers in the Broadalbin area lost power, according to National Grid's outage map. The outage followed a storm that crossed the Capital Region the night before.
Trees along lake roads bring down lines in wind, ice and heavy snow. Rural roads can mean longer waits for repair crews.
Who to call
- 911: fire, smoke, sparks or a shock injury.
- National Grid: lines down, the road dark, or damage on their side of the meter.
- An electrician: a damaged meter socket, one circuit dead, a breaker that will not reset.
- Generator owners: connect through a transfer switch or interlock, never a wall outlet.
Lake properties
Camps near Great Sacandaga Lake: seasonal electrical checks
Kennyetto Creek runs through the village and north to Great Sacandaga Lake. Many properties around Broadalbin are camps that sit empty for months.
Empty buildings hide problems. Mice chew cable, ice cracks outdoor boxes, and water gets into outlets near the shore.
Outdoor work is most of what lake owners ask for: landscape lighting in Broadalbin, security cameras and intercoms to watch a camp from home, and hot tub wiring for decks and patios.
Spring opening checklist
- Look for chewed cable in the crawlspace and attic.
- Test every GFCI outlet, inside and out.
- Check outdoor boxes and covers for cracks.
- Turn on the main breaker only after a visual check.
- Call an electrician if anything is wet, burned or chewed.

- TrenchingBuried feeds to docks, sheds and hot tubs add labor.
- Permit and inspectionVillage or town permits and the inspection fee add to the total.
