Additional Notes

Zoning Coordinator/Building Inspector is Bryan Powers, direct line (517) 937-8205 (main township office (517) 784-4712). His email address was shown redacted/obfuscated in search results and could not be confirmed in plain text, so it is left null — likely reachable via the township's general contact form or main office. The township also has a BS&A Online presence (bsaonline.com/?uid=1338), but it was confirmed to offer only Assessing, Tax, and Property Sales record search — not a building permit portal — so it is not listed as a permit database here.

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 — Sandstone Charter 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.
