Additional Notes

Per the DSPS UDC delegated-municipality list (Aug 19, 2026): Clerk John Kreager, 715-581-2775, townofhewitt@gmail.com (Marathon County DOA 37040); delegated inspector Darin Pagel, Northwinds Inspection, 715-218-0822, northwindsinspections@yahoo.com. A separate web search of the Town's current officials list instead named Clerk Trudi Sturzenegger (715-432-0948), alongside Chair Adam Holbrook (715-581-4977) -- likely reflects a change in clerk since the DSPS list was compiled, or the DSPS entry is stale; both names are included as a hedge, verify the current clerk directly. This is the Town of Hewitt in MARATHON County -- distinct from the Village of Hewitt in Wood County (different batch, separate government) and from the similarly-spelled but unrelated Town of Hewett in Clark 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 Hewitt'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.
