Additional Notes
Per the DSPS delegated-authority list, UDC building inspection is delegated to Andrew Johnson / AJ Inspection Services LLC, 920-410-6677, ajinspection@outlook.com; Town Clerk of record is Peggy Hendricks, 920-744-8092, town@northnet.net. Town Hall address and phone (3413 County Road K, Omro, WI 54963; 920-744-8092) were independently confirmed by fetching the town's own website, which matches the DSPS clerk phone number — good corroboration. The town's website currently presents an expired TLS certificate (browser/security warnings likely); content was retrieved by bypassing the cert check. No dedicated online permit portal was found; the town does not appear to publish a separate building-permit-specific webpage beyond general zoning/board info.
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 Rushford'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.
