Additional Notes
Per the Wisconsin DSPS UDC Delegated Municipalities list, the Town of Dunbar's UDC building inspector is Duff Leaver (715-216-4734, duffleaver@me.com); Town Chair Bruce Radtke (715-499-3145 per DSPS, though the digits printed in the source PDF were partially garbled) is the municipal contact and reportedly gives a monthly building-permit report at town board meetings. General Town contact is 715-324-6132 / townofdunbar@gmail.com (N18956 CC Camp Road, Dunbar, WI 54119); note the DSPS list shows a slightly different address 'townofdunbar1@gmail.com' - both are included as a hedge since it's unclear which is current. No dedicated online permit portal was found.
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 Dunbar'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.
