Additional Notes
Township office phone/fax and address found via Charlevoix County's official township listing page (charlevoixcounty.org, which redirects to a cms2.revize.com-hosted page under the same county government). Building permits for the township are understood to be administered through the Charlevoix County Department of Building Safety, but the direct page confirming this specific township's inclusion returned a 403 error during verification and was not independently re-confirmed -- flagged as a likely-correct but unconfirmed lead rather than omitted. County Building Safety general contact should be looked up separately for phone/email.
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 — Chandler 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.
