Additional Notes

No official town website found; the Town of Glen Haven appears to have no standing web presence, only a Facebook/WordPress community page unrelated to town government. Clerk name/phone/email (Paige Hampton) sourced from the Grant County 2026-2027 Official Directory via search snippet, not the primary PDF (fetch of the PDF itself failed to render text) - the email address format looks unusual (possible OCR artifact of the directory listing) and should be verified before use. Town Chairman is separately reported as Roger Ploessl, cell approx. 608-732-2774, rogerploessl16@gmail.com (also unverified against a primary source). Wisconsin DSPS's UDC-delegated-municipality list confirms Glen Haven (Grant Co., municipality code 22018) holds delegated UDC authority ("Delegated" status), but the administrator/inspector contact columns were blank in the parsed copy of that PDF for this row, consistent with the known column-misalignment issue in naive extraction of that document. Recommend confirming all contact details directly with the Grant County Clerk's office (608-723-2038) or the town chairman/clerk before relying on them.

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 Glen Haven'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.
