Additional Notes
The Village of Broadalbin does not appear to have its own dedicated website; general village contact is (518) 883-8265, broadalbinvillage@frontiernet.net, 16 West Main Street / PO Box 6, Broadalbin, NY 12025. A code enforcement officer named Norman Barbosa is associated with a PO Box 6, Broadalbin, NY 12025 address (matching the village's own PO Box) and phone (518) 706-6119, distinct from the Town of Broadalbin's own code enforcement office (Steve Quinlan, (518) 528-3982, Broadalbincodes@gmail.com, 201 Union Mills Rd) -- however, this could not be fully confirmed as the current village-specific officer via an official village source, and one third-party profile associates a similarly-named person with code enforcement in the Town of Mayfield instead. Treat the Barbosa/village association as an unconfirmed lead. The Town of Broadalbin also maintains a public building permit PDF that may or may not apply to village properties -- villages and towns are legally distinct in NY, so confirm jurisdiction before relying on town materials.
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 Broadalbin'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.
