Section 18.05 of the Zoning Ordinance, which says the ordinance "shall be administered and enforced by the Township Building Inspector" (Section 18.01), requires a permit before a building is erected or altered "except that no permit shall be required for minor alterations or repairs to existing structures costing five hundred ($500) Dollars or less". Section 18.02 provides that "the Township Board shall, by Resolution, determine and set the fees to be charged for all permits", and the township posts no fee schedule, permit application or roofing statement on its permits or ordinances pages, so ask the Building Inspector for the current fee and form.

Roofing permits & building code in Macon Township
Roofing permit and contractor-licensing rules in Macon Township are set locally by Macon Township - Building Inspector. Michigan licenses residential roofers at the state level — the Occupational Code’s residential maintenance and alteration contractor licence names roofing among its trades, with exemptions that include a job whose whole contract price is under $600 — and some cities add a local contractor registration on top, while the Michigan Residential Code applies throughout the state, so a city, village, township or county enforces the state code rather than writing its own roofing rules — always confirm the current requirements with the authority before starting work.
