Additional Notes

IMPORTANT: This is the Town of Irving in JACKSON County, unrelated to the Towns/Village of Jackson in Adams County and Burnett County covered elsewhere in this same batch, and unrelated to any Jackson-named municipality in Washington County covered in a separate later batch. Town of Irving holds its own DSPS UDC delegation (Aug 2026 list, line 706), but that list row has blank contact fields. UDC inspector confirmed via Jackson County's official 'Licensed Service Providers' list (PDF, updated April 2026): General Engineering Co., Kent Erickson, 608-697-7774 (cell), covering the Town of Irving among many other Jackson County towns. No dedicated Town of Irving website or direct clerk contact (name/phone/email) could be confirmed; permitDeptUrl points to Jackson County's UDC program page.

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 Irving'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.
