Additional Notes
Building permits are obtained through the Town Chairperson/Clerk-Treasurer at the Town Hall (N14399 County Road M, Galesville, WI 54630). Per the Wisconsin DSPS 'Municipalities with Delegated Authority for the UDC' list (Aug 19, 2026), the town's own municipal contact is listed as Blaise Stegemeyer, Clerk, at the same phone number, with UDC inspection backstopped by Trempealeau County (County contact: Mary Martin, Clerk, 715-538-2311, mary.martin@co.trempealeau.wi.us; county-contracted inspector Kyle Kreibich of General Engineering Co., 608-697-7775, gec@generalengineering.net). The town's own website separately names Stacey Klein as Chairperson and Sarah Halderson as Clerk-Treasurer; these may reflect staff turnover between sources and are included as a hedge rather than a confirmed current contact. For zoning questions, Trempealeau County Dept. of Land Management can also be reached at 877-538-2311 ext. 223. Do not confuse with the unrelated Town of Caledonia in Waupaca, Columbia, or Village of Caledonia in Racine County.
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 Caledonia'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.
