Additional Notes
No official village (.gov/.org) website could be located for Blandinsville, so no fact below could be confirmed on an official government domain and all fields are left blank per sourcing rules. Third-party directories (unverified) list a 'Blandinsville Town Hall' at 100 West Washington Street, IL 61420, phone 309-652-3388 — this is a hedge, not a confirmed fact. McDonough County's official materials indicate zoning/permitting for incorporated municipalities is handled by each municipality individually rather than the county, so Blandinsville's own village office is presumed to be the permit authority, but this could not be confirmed on an official source.
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 Blandinsville'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.
