HEDGE: DSPS's UDC Delegated Municipalities list (Muni #66181, status: Delegated) still shows an older/superseded contact pair — Village Administrator Margaret Wilber (262-644-5265, mwilber@vi.slinger.wi.gov) and a prior SAFEbuilt inspector Justin Brandt (262-226-0267, jbrandt@safebuilt.com) — which predates the August 2025 change; the village's own current website is treated as authoritative here.

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 — Village of Slinger'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.
