Additional Notes
This is the Town of Holland in LA CROSSE County -- an unrelated municipality from the Towns of Holland in Brown County and Sheboygan County, WI, and from the Village/City of Holland, Michigan; researched independently. Building inspection is contracted to General Engineering Company (GEC). The town's own website names inspector Bob Alsens (cell 608-697-8007, office 608-742-2169); DSPS delegation records instead name Aaron Holbach at the same GEC office (608-742-2169) -- GEC appears to rotate/reassign inspectors across its client municipalities, so both names are given as a hedge. Clerk hours: Mon 8a-1p, Wed 3-6p, Thu 8a-1p.
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 Holland'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.
