Use this address when the jurisdiction needs to be listed as a certificate holder on a contractor's insurance documentation.
Additional Notes
DSPS confirms delegated UDC authority (Muni #01034); DSPS's table lists the inspector simply as 'See County of Adams.' A separate third-party building-permit forms site (bldgpermit.com) instead lists 'Lakeside Inspections' (8735 Elder Rd, Tomah, WI 54660) as the town's inspection contact — could not confirm which is the current/primary arrangement, so both are noted. Clerk contact (Lori Henthorne, 608-564-7626) is corroborated by both DSPS's table and the town's own FAQ page phone number, giving higher confidence in that portion.
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 Strongs Prairie'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.
