Why the Fayetteville exceptions are worth ten minutes
The arithmetic makes the check obvious. Five addresses in six here will turn out to be straightforward village matters, and the ten minutes spent confirming that costs nothing. The sixth is on county right of way, where unpermitted entrance work exposes the owner to a penalty that accrues daily rather than once. No saving on a bid is worth carrying that, and no bidder should be inviting you to.
The penalty is per day and it attaches to the property
Section 136 sets a fine of not less than twenty-five dollars and not more than one thousand for each day of violation for entrance work in a county right of way without a permit.
82.9 percent village, and the rest can be named
19.5 of Fayetteville's 23.5 centerline miles are village street. The 1.5 county miles and 2.6 state miles are specific roads, not a vague possibility.
Older frontages put the work closer to the line
A fifth of this village predates 1940 and those lots tend to have public walk frontage and short drives, which puts more of the work near the boundary than a 1960s lot does.
19.5 of 23.5 miles, and the law covering the rest
Fayetteville village carries 19.5 centerline miles of village street, 1.5 miles of county-owned highway and 2.6 miles of state-owned highway, for 23.5 miles in total. Almost 83 percent of the road mileage inside the village is the village's own.

New York Highway Law section 136, headed Permits for work within the county road right of way, provides that no person, firm, corporation or municipality shall construct or improve an entrance or connection within the county road right of way without a work permit issued by the county superintendent or a duly designated agent, and that a violator is liable to a fine of not less than twenty-five dollars nor more than one thousand dollars for each day of violation.

One office for most of Fayetteville, and a per-day penalty for the rest
Fayetteville village holds 19.5 of the 23.5 centerline miles inside its boundary, with 1.5 county-owned and 2.6 state-owned, so almost 83 percent of the road here is the village's own. For most addresses that means a single office and a short process. The 4.1 miles that are not the village's are worth identifying precisely, because New York Highway Law section 136 makes constructing or improving an entrance within a county road right of way without a county work permit an offense carrying a fine of not less than twenty-five and not more than one thousand dollars for each day of violation. Per day, and it follows the property.

Permit questions from Fayetteville village homeowners
What actually happens if entrance work is done without the county permit?
New York Highway Law section 136 provides that nobody may construct or improve an entrance or connection within a county road right of way without a work permit from the county superintendent, and sets a fine of not less than twenty-five dollars and not more than one thousand for each day of violation. Because it accrues daily and attaches to the work at the property, it is the owner's exposure rather than a line item on a contractor's overhead.
Which Fayetteville roads are not the village's?
Only 4.1 of the 23.5 centerline miles inside the village, split as 1.5 county-owned and 2.6 state-owned against 19.5 miles of village street. That is a short enough list to identify by name for any given address, which is exactly why guessing is unnecessary here.
