Additional Notes
The town's own Contacts page (townoflittlewolfwi.gov/Contacts/) lists the Town Clerk, Chair, Supervisors, and Treasurer but does not itself name a building inspector; Paul Hanlon is identified as Little Wolf's Building Inspector via secondary sources (search-indexed contact listings referencing him as Building Inspector/Zoning Administrator for this town, and he is separately confirmed as building inspector for the nearby City of Manawa and Village of Hortonville, consistent with one inspector covering multiple small Waupaca-area municipalities) -- hedge: not directly verified on the town's own site, recommend confirming by phone. Address on file for him: 1826 Starlight Dr, New London, WI 54961. Town Clerk (general contact): townclerk@townoflittlewolfwi.gov, (920) 596-2143, PO Box 8, E6325 Cty Rd N, Manawa, WI 54949. DSPS delegated-authority PDF confirms Delegated status (DOA 68026) but has no populated contact fields in the current edition. Waupaca County Planning & Zoning (land use permits): 715-258-6496.
What You Need Before Applying for a Permit
Most building departments ask for the same core package before they'll issue a permit: a completed application naming the property owner and contractor, the contractor's state license number and proof of insurance (general liability, and workers' comp if employees are on the job), a notice of commencement or equivalent recorded filing for larger jobs where the state requires one, and scaled plans or a site plan for anything beyond minor repairs. Roofing, fence, pool, and solar permits typically have their own simplified checklists — Town of Little Wolf's department (above) can confirm exactly what applies to your project.
Why this matters for insurance: permit history is one of the first things an underwriter or adjuster checks. Unpermitted work — a finished basement, an added bedroom, a rebuilt roof — can complicate a claim or even void coverage for that portion of the loss, and it routinely surfaces during a home inspection. Pulling the right permit up front, and keeping the closed-permit record on file, protects both the property's value and its insurability at resale.
