Additional Notes

This is Hudson Township in Lenawee County, distinct from the City of Hudson (also Lenawee County) and from Hudson Township in Mackinac County. Per the township's official site (hudsontwplenaweemi.gov), building site plans are approved by the Township Supervisor and then permits/fees/inspections are handled by Hillsdale County Building Inspectors (a cross-county delegation, confirmed on the official township site). Plumbing permits are handled through the State of Michigan. No online portal found.

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 — Hudson 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.
