Yes, a permit is required to replace a roof in Covington Township, MI, issued by Township of Covington - Building Inspector. In Covington Township a roof job starts with the township's building permit procedure, which has no reroofing item. The procedure lists a fire number application, a soil erosion permit, a well and septic permit, a land sub-division permit, an electrical permit and "a Covington Township Building Permit Application", says "Forms are available from the Building Inspector.", and ends "reviews will take place in a timely manner, and permits issued." The township's fee sheet adds "A $25.00 ADMINISTRATION FEE WILL BE ADDED TO THE TOTAL COST OF EACH PERMIT" and "FEES ARE DOUBLED IF CONSTRUCTION IS STARTED BEFORE PERMIT IS ISSUED"; it carries the date 6/11/14, so confirm the current fee with the building inspector. The permits page links the township application and sends electrical permits to the State of Michigan, and its contacts page lists the building inspector, 906-355-2184, and says the zoning administrator is reached by calling the supervisor. Board meetings are held at 12898 HWY M 28.
