Yes, a permit is required to replace a roof in Athens Township (Calhoun County), MI, issued by Athens Township - Building Permits. Athens Township has published nothing specific to reroofing, so the state's general permit rule applies: "before construction of a building or structure, the owner, or the owner's builder, architect, engineer, or agent, shall submit an application in writing to the appropriate enforcing agency for a building permit." The township's permits page says to print the paperwork, fill it out and email or mail it to the Permit Administrator at Athens Township, PO Box 368, Athens, MI 49011, and lists a "BUILDING PERMIT", "MECHANICAL PERMIT", "PLUMBING PERMIT", "DRIVEWAY PERMIT", "WELL FIRST AREA", "ELECTRICAL PERMIT" and "ZONING PERMIT". Its building permit application says "SEPARATE APPLICATIONS MUST BE COMPLETED FOR: PLUMBING, MECHANICAL, AND ELECTRICAL WORK", names a Building Inspector for inspections, and says "Authority: P.A. 230 of 1972, as amended. Completion: Mandatory to obtain permit". The application says the charge to re-open a closed permit is $75.
