Home / Roofing by City / Fillmore Township (Allegan County), Michigan

Yes, a permit is required to replace a roof in Fillmore Township (Allegan County), MI, issued by Township of Fillmore - Building Permits. Fillmore Township has published nothing that names roof work either way: its Permits page, its Building Permit Requirements sheet and its building permit application have no roofing line. With the township silent on reroofs, 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 same section says "A building permit is not required for ordinary repairs of a building or structure," without defining ordinary repairs, and the township has published nothing applying that relief to roof work. The Permits page says "Building permits are to be turned into the township office for zoning and approval." and "Please include $75.00/inspection (EFFECTIVE Jan 1, 2025). Permit costs are $75 EACH TIME you need the inspector". Its requirements sheet asks for "COMPLETED BUILDING PERMIT APPLICATIONS." and says "LICENSED CONTRACTOR IS NEED IF YOU WILL NOT BE LIVING IN THE HOME." and "ZONING MUST BE APPROVED BEFORE YOUR APPLICATION IS SENT TO P.C.I." The Permits page says to call the township office at (269) 751-7655 with questions, to include an email address so the permit with its number can be returned, and to call the appropriate inspector to arrange inspections, because the township does not arrange them. Office hours on the township home page are 8am-noon Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
