Additional Notes
No functioning official village website or confirmed phone number was found for Eagarville (pop. ~114-132). It has only a placeholder page on Macoupin County's site (sei.macoupincountyil.gov) with no contact details. The mailing address (PO Box 182) comes from Illinois Commerce Commission municipal-clerk filings (icc.illinois.gov, an official Illinois state source), though older ICC filings list PO Box 162 instead, so the exact box number should be double-checked. Macoupin County's own official permits page explicitly states unincorporated areas have no zoning and that incorporated villages must be contacted directly for their own permit rules -- so the county is NOT a fallback authority here. No building/permit department could be confirmed for this village at all; treat this entry as largely unconfirmed.
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 Eagarville'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.
