Additional Notes
Per the WI DSPS statewide delegated-municipality list (8/19/2026), Clintonville's official UDC municipality contact is City Administrator Caz Muske (715-823-7600, cmuske@clintonvillewi.org) and its UDC Inspector of record is Stephanie Potter of MSA Professional Services (608-617-5691, spotter@msa-ps.com). Note, as a hedge: several independent web sources (city RFP records, third-party listings) describe building inspection services as contracted to Kunkel Engineering Group / John Lust, with office hours Tuesday & Thursday 9:00-11:30am at City Hall, phone 920-210-6351, email jlust@geo-logic.com -- this may reflect a prior or concurrently-used arrangement alongside the DSPS-listed MSA contact; both are included since sources disagree. Zoning Administrator line: 715-823-7601. City Hall: 50 10th Street, Clintonville, WI 54929.
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 — City of Clintonville'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.
