Additional Notes
Township handles its own building permitting directly (not delegated to Genesee County). Separate state-licensed trade inspectors listed on the township site: Electrical 810-280-5520, Plumbing 989-506-8649, Mechanical 989-590-8169. No online permit portal or department email found on the official site; general Building Department line is 810-653-4156 (a separate 810-653-9025 number appears in third-party directories but was not confirmed on the township's own site, so it is omitted).
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 — Davison 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.
