Getting Permits/COs Town of Oyster Bay

Anyone have an idea on the timeframe to get a permit/CO for work done on your home before selling it these days? Are there fines for not getting the permit before doing the work? I've heard the Town of Oyster Bay is notoriously slow but what is slow? Two months, six months, a year? Are there a ton of variants to the process that may factor in and change the typical timeframe? Thanks!

I am not sure of getting a permit after the work has been done but when we pulled permits before our basement finishing it took about 6 weeks after the architect submitted plans. The first inspector was in the house in less than a week-10 days. Yes, there are fines if the work is already done-It is 50% over the permit fee-but I am not sure if the percentage is the same these days. This was in 2011. You can call the town and ask anonymously. They will tell you what the process is and what the fees will be.

Thanks for the response. I actually went down to the town with a notarized letter allowing me access to the paperwork and still couldn't get a timeframe or any idea what the costs are. I guess there really is no easy way to find this out.
