Yes, a permit is required to replace a roof in Ganges Township (Allegan County), MI, issued by Ganges Township - Building Permits (Michigan Township Services-Allegan). Ganges Township publishes nothing specific to roof work. Its Who Do I Call? page lists building permits under the same 800-626-5964 line as zoning and ordinance questions, and its Building Permits & Forms page says "Download official forms for building permits, zoning applications, land division, and other township services". Michigan Township Services, which lists Ganges among its municipalities, says it "administers municipal construction code departments without cost to taxpayers" and that "All inspection and clerical costs are covered by permit fees"; the township's building permit requirements sheet (6-2024) directs applicants to submit to Michigan Township Services-Allegan, Inc., 111 Grand Street, Allegan, MI 49010, by mail or by calling 800-626-5964. 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 township's own fee schedule, "Revised Feb2023", lists zoning fees only, so ask for the current building permit fee.
