Additional Notes

Per DSPS's UDC delegated-authority PDF (Village of Spring Green, Sauk County, DOA code 56182, line 1700): Clerk/Treasurer Wendy Crary (608-588-2335, wcrary@villageofspringgreen.com) and Inspector Dennis Butteris of General Engineering Co. (608-742-2169, gec@generalengineering.net). The village's own website did not surface a separate dedicated building-permit contact page in this search, so the general village phone/email above is used for the department line; a fee schedule PDF confirms an appointed Building Inspector position exists. Distinct from Town of Spring Green (also Sauk County) - verify separately.

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 — Village of Spring Green'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.
