Additional Notes
Village office/Code Enforcement located at 149 East Main Street, Palmyra, NY. Village page advises calling ahead as CEO's work often requires being on the road. A third-party directory (Yellow Pages) listed a different phone (315-597-4999) and address (1180 Canandaigua Rd) for a 'Palmyra Code Enforcement' entry, but that address appears to correspond to the Town of Palmyra rather than the Village; the Village's own official page phone/address above was used instead.
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 Palmyra'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.
