Additional Notes
Zoning/code enforcement is contracted to 'Zoning Solutions' (269-535-7463), per the village's own official site. Two domains both present as the village's official site -- villageofvandaliami.com (Wix-hosted; used here since its /contact page gave confirmed phone/email/address) and vandaliami.gov (also self-described as 'official government website') -- which one is the current primary site was not fully resolved, so this is flagged as a minor unconfirmed detail worth double-checking.
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 Vandalia'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.
