What do I do in an Emergency?
Emergency
If you are experiencing an emergency, please call 911. If it is a non-emergency, please call 816-792-4254.
building permit vs occupational license
Building Permit or Occupational License or Both?
An occupational license is for the professional(s) doing the work for a project. This could be any project like a new roof, adding on to your home, working on your heating and cooling system, replacing your deck etc.
A building permit is required when you are changing the dimensions of something or building something new.
You might need both for a project or only one of these for a project. Please call CIty Hall if you have questions.

OCCUPATIONAL LICENSES REQUIRED
A permit is required for any work done in the Village. Please contact City Hall with any questions about forms or procedures.
BUILDING PERMITS REQUIRED!
One of your first steps for any construction or electrical project should be a building permit application! It is the Board’s responsibility to enforce zoning and building ordinances. Permit applications are reviewed at monthly Board Meetings, held on the 2nd Tuesday of every month, and must be received at City Hall by noon on the Thursday prior to a Board Meeting. Forms are available on the website, via email, and at City Hall with the Village Clerk.

For Tuesday Board Meetings, please call by the Thursday before; for Thursday Work Sessions, please call by the Tuesday before the meeting. If the subject is not on the Agenda it CANNOT be discussed.
PROPERTY CODE VIOLATION
If City Hall receives a complaint this will result in a cordial warning letter from us, upon verification, asking you to tend to the issue. If it is within the time frame specified in the letter, the matter is resolved. If not, a citation may be issued.
Commonly issued warnings:
- Trash, appliances, furniture left outside
- Tree limbs, tall grass
- Unlicensed/inoperable vehicles
- Tires, Wheels and Pallets
- Outside storage of household items.
- Brush piles that attract vermin
- If circumstances exist that may interfere with a timely response, please reach out to us at City Hall. We’re here to work out situations and to be more of service.
TRASH/ RECYCLING AND YARD WASTE
With all the confusion and service issues you all have experienced the last few months, the Village has attempted to confirm the following information. Also, again I encourage everyone to please feel free and email City Hall with any and all issues. As information changes or updates, I’ll be sure to advise everyone.
- Weekly pick-up occurs on Thursdays. Residents should have items out before 7 am, but no sooner than 6 pm the day before. After trash has been collected, please remember to place your trash and recycling polycarts behind the front line of your house.
- All trash should fit into your polycart. Additional bag stickers are available at City Hall for $1 each and $10 for a bulky item sticker. GFL must be contacted at least 24 hours prior to pickup for bulky items to be taken. Contact information for the Kansas City branch is 816-380-5595.
- All recycling should fit into your polycart.
- Up to 7 biodegradable yard waste paper bags or tied stick bundles (4’x2’ wide) per week. Yard waste pick-up is March 1st – Oct 31st, with unlimited yard waste pickup from Nov 1st through Dec 31st. Please be advised that our branch for GFL does not allow fruit pits, nuts, seeds, or other food scraps in the yard waste pickup. They also will not pick up yard waste bags that contain dirt or anything other than branch/brush/grass and leaves.
- No open burning is allowed without confined incinerator device, monitoring, and a water source.
- If you have questions or problems with GFL Trash Service, contact the City Clerk at City Hall via phone or email.
- If you notice your trash or recycling hasn’t been picked up, please notify the City Clerk as soon as possible. The sooner we let GFL know, the sooner they can guarantee same-day return for missed services. If the City Clerk happens to be out of office for any reason, please call GFL at 816-380-5595 and press for option 3. All they need is your address and they’ll notify the route driver as immediately as possible.
- Holidays when trash pick-up will be delayed 1-day for the week:
- New Year’s Day
- Independence Day/4th of July
- Thanksgiving
- Christmas
***Please see the end of the newsletter for recycling guidelines***
REMINDERS
- Clear leaves and grass clippings from drains, under sidewalks and driveways to keep water from backing up and flooding yards and roadways.
- Fire Pits – for safety, a water source must be close by, the burn must be monitored and should not be left unattended. Be sure to follow burn restrictions on windy & dry days.
- Report you live in Oakview when you license your automobiles. We’ll put your tax dollars to work for you.
- If you don’t work in KCMO, your employer should not take the 1% earnings tax out of your check.
- Home-based businesses must have an Occupational License application completed and approved by the Board of Trustees, for businesses operating in Oakview.
- All cats and dogs are required to be registered with City Hall and have a city tag. This ensures if your animal is picked up by Oakview police, you can be reunited with your pet.
- Pets at large are against city ordinance and subject to ticketing.
Help us out! If you see something, say something! Our police officers are always committed to keeping the Village of Oakview safe and protected. With your help, they can be even greater! If you see or notice anything that may be amiss, don’t hesitate to let us know.
