Additional Notes

HEDGE on phone number: the Wisconsin DSPS UDC delegated-agent list (DOA code 68032, Delegated) lists the Clerk's phone as 920-940-0085, but the town's own Town Board page (townofroyalton.com/town-board) lists it as 920-340-0085 — likely a transposition typo in one of the two sources. The town site's number is used here as presumably more current, but both are noted in case the DSPS figure is correct. Building Inspector Paul Hanlon is confirmed on both sources (920-878-0024, phanlon1955@gmail.com). Clerk mailing address: E6475 Heinke Rd, New London, WI 54961; Town Hall: E6132 State Road 54, New London, WI 54961.

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 Royalton'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.
