Additional Notes

Village's Building Permits page states permits are issued by Paul Ketterer (608-778-1063, kettererp@outlook.com), with inspections by Bradley Smrcina, Smrcina Inspections LLC (PO Box 94, Mt Sterling, WI 54645; cell 608-799-6229; bsmrcina@centurytel.net). However, the separate Village Officials & Contacts page instead lists Michael E. Parrott, Director of Inspection Services at General Engineering Company (916 Silver Lake Drive, PO Box 340, Portage, WI 53901, 608-742-2169), as the Building Inspector. This discrepancy between two official village pages could reflect a recent change of contracted inspector; both are disclosed as a hedge — verify current inspector before relying on either. Village Clerk/Treasurer: Susan Rose-Adametz, 608-996-2195, villageofbagley@gmail.com. Note: a separate, unrelated Town of Bagley exists in Oconto County — not to be confused with this Grant County village.

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 Bagley'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.
