Additional Notes
DSPS UDC delegated-municipality list (Aug 19, 2026) confirms the Town holds delegated UDC authority (Sheboygan County DOA 59004) but lists no municipal/inspector contact for this line -- confirmed instead via the Town's own website (townherman.com), which names Eric Raquet as both Treasurer and Building and Zoning Administrator. No published email address was found for Eric Raquet in this role. IMPORTANT: three unrelated Towns of Herman exist in Wisconsin (Dodge, Shawano, Sheboygan counties) -- this entry is Sheboygan County only, do not confuse with the other two.
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 Herman'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.
