Additional Notes
Per the township's own official site (fultontwp.com), the Township Supervisor serves as Zoning Administrator; office hours Mon/Wed/Fri 9am-noon and 1-4pm. A visible email address is Cloudflare-obfuscated on the official site and could not be confirmed, so left null. A Township Zoning Permit (from Fulton Township) is required before Gratiot County will issue a Building Permit; the actual building permit is likely issued by the Gratiot County Community Development / Permits Office, (989) 875-5201, 214 E. Center St., Ithaca, MI (per gratiotmi.com), though that county page does not explicitly list Fulton Township among its served jurisdictions — included here as an unconfirmed but plausible lead, hedged.
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 — Fulton 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.
