Additional Notes

DSPS UDC delegated-municipality PDF (row 949, DOA 37060) lists Town of Norrie as Delegated but with no named contact in that row. The town's own website names Mike Block, Building Inspector, (715) 490-4069, as the inspector applicants should call to schedule inspections; a permit is required before construction and Board inspection is required for projects over $5,000. General town phone/fax numbers found were inconsistent between pages ((715) 432-5036 vs (715) 449-3953 shown as either phone or fax on different pages) — 715-432-5036 is used here as the primary phone with 715-449-3953 as a possible fax line, but this should be verified. The town's email address is served via a JavaScript/obfuscated contact-protection link that could not be extracted as plain text, so email is left null rather than guessed. A separate web search suggested the town clerk may be named Carla Georgi, but this was not independently confirmed on an official town page. Mailing address: 224971 County Road D, Birnamwood, WI 54414 (physical address also listed elsewhere as 183453 Cornell Street, Birnamwood, WI 54414 — discrepancy not resolved).

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 — Town of Norrie'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.
