Additional Notes
This is a SEPARATE government from the City of Caseville above, though both appear to be headquartered at the same 6767 Main Street address (see note on that entry) with different phone numbers. Building Inspector Terry Kelly: (989) 856-6061, office hours Mon/Wed/Fri 8-11am. Electrical Inspector Josh Zimmerman: (989) 413-9123. Plumbing Inspector Paul Shamka: (989) 262-4546, email listed as psshamka@safebuild.com (likely a typo of the private code-inspection firm 'SAFEbuilt' — flagged, not independently confirmed). All new housing permits require an approved septic permit; Soil Erosion permits for work within 500 ft of water must come from Huron County first.
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 — Caseville Township'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.
