Additional Notes

The town's official website does not publish a dedicated building-permit or inspector page; the Town Clerk (reachable at the email above) is the starting point for permit inquiries. The Wisconsin DSPS UDC-delegated-municipalities list (Aug 2026) confirms this town (Wood County, DOA code 71006) is UDC-delegated but lists no current municipal contact or inspector in that dataset. A Wood County directory (editions circa 2015-2022) listed 'Al Breu, UDC Building Inspector, 11075 Stadt Rd, Marshfield, WI 54449, 715-387-4222' for the Town of Cameron; this is dated and unconfirmed as current, so it is disclosed here as an uncertain lead rather than a verified fact -- note it is a different number from Allen Breu's number (715-897-1669) that appears elsewhere in current DSPS records for the Town/Village of Auburndale, also in Wood County, so there may be a mix-up between these two similarly-named inspectors/towns. This Town of Cameron (Wood County) is unrelated to the Village of Cameron in Barron County.

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 Cameron'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.
