Additional Notes

Addieville has no independent building/zoning department. The official Washington County government page for Addieville (washingtonco.illinois.gov) lists the Washington County Zoning office, (618) 327-4800 ext. 345, as the relevant contact for zoning matters — this is a county fallback rather than a confirmed dedicated Addieville building department. That same official page lists the village's own mailing address as PO Box 52, Addieville, IL 62214, with Village President Chance Gaebe and Clerk Carla Zapp, but no separate building-permit contact or phone/email for the village itself. Verify directly with the village or county before relying on this for permitting.

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 Addieville'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.
