Additional Notes
IMPORTANT GAP: The Village of Ingram does NOT appear anywhere in the DSPS 'Wisconsin Municipalities with Delegated Authority for the UDC' list (Aug 2026, verified by parsing the full 75-page PDF with pdfplumber), and Rusk County itself is also not listed as a county holding delegated UDC authority. This means it is unconfirmed which agency (village, county, or state DSPS directly) currently handles one- and two-family dwelling building permits/inspections for Ingram — per DSPS's own guidance, where no local government exercises jurisdiction, the state handles enforcement directly (contact DSPS at 608-266-2112). No named UDC inspector was found. Clerk contact above (Keri Baselt, phone has a 605/South Dakota area code, personal Gmail address) is sourced from Rusk County's official municipal directory page but is for general village business, not confirmed as a building-permit contact specifically — verify directly before relying on it. No dedicated Village of Ingram website was found.
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 Ingram'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.
