Additional Notes

Per the county's own official site, the Building Department issues permits for all areas of Wexford County except Cedar Creek Township, City of Manton, and City of Cadillac — Springville Township is covered. An email address is shown on the page via a Cloudflare email-obfuscation script and could not be reliably extracted as literal text, so it is left null rather than guessed. Cash or check only for payment; no online portal listed. Springville Township is also part of the Wexford Joint Planning Commission for zoning (contact 231-444-6159, planningandzoning@wexfordjpc.org, same 401 N Lake St address).

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 — Springville Township'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.
