Additional Notes
Willow Hill (pop. 172 in 2020) appears to have no official government website, and none could be located during this research (only Wikipedia, city-data, and yellowpages entries were found). Jasper County itself does not run a countywide zoning/building office serving all municipalities - the only county-adjacent office found was the City of Newton's own zoning office, which does not cover Willow Hill. A third-party listing (yellowpages) shows a phone number (618) 943-4418 for 'city/village/township government' in Willow Hill, and a 2010 filing lists village clerk names, but neither is an official government source, so these are omitted per sourcing rules rather than reported as fact. Building-permit authority for this village could not be confirmed.
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 Willow Hill'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.
