Additional Notes

Building inspector name and cell phone sourced from the Town's own website (townoftroysaukcounty.com), which also lists Plan Commission Chairman Brian Hanson, (608) 544-5000; no email was found for the inspector. DSPS UDC Delegated Municipalities PDF confirms Town of Troy, Sauk County (DOA code 56036) as Delegated (line 1247), listing Town Clerk Mary Zins, 608-544-3549, mazins@tds.net, as municipal contact, with no separate inspector name printed in that row (consistent with the town site's listing). Town Hall: S10372 County Rd. C, Sauk City, WI 53583, 608-544-2000. This Town of Troy (Sauk County) is UNRELATED to the two other Towns of Troy in a different batch (St. Croix County and Walworth County) — do not confuse.

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 Troy'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.
