Home / Roofing by City / Grayling Township (Crawford County), Michigan

Yes, a permit is required to replace a roof in Grayling Township (Crawford County), MI, issued by Charter Township of Grayling - Building Department. The Building Department publishes nothing specific to roof work: its page says "The township issues electrical, mechanical, plumbing and general building permits and performs all necessary inspections," and its permit applications page and building permit application name no roofing permit, no size or cost point and no reroof exemption. With the department 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 department has published nothing applying that relief to roof work. The page says "Inspections are done in the order received, and 24-hour advanced notification of the need for an inspection must be given" and "No permits shall be issued after 4 pm." It says "Applications for Building and Plan Review must call 989-348-7534 for pricing", and that building permits can be bought online "with a 2.75% fee, $2.00 minimum"; the page notes a new fee schedule as of February 4, 2026 but posts none, so ask the department for the current fee.
