Additional Notes
Milton Township's own official site is miltontownshipmi.gov (confirmed as Antrim County location, Kewadin, MI). Antrim County's own official .gov site states its Construction Code Department 'retains all building, plumbing, electrical and mechanical permits' but does not explicitly name every township, so the Milton Township-specific delegation is a reasonable but not fully explicit inference, flagged as a hedge. Township's own general contact info: phone (231) 264-6612, P.O. Box 309 / 7023 Cherry Ave., Kewadin, MI 49648 (general township office, not the building department -- included as certHolder is for the county dept, not the township). This is a distinct, unrelated 'Milton Township' government from the one in Cass County -- note the similar official domain names (miltontownshipmi.gov vs. miltontwpmi.gov) which could easily be confused.
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 — Milton Township'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.
