Home / Roofing by City / Oregon Township (Lapeer County), Michigan

Yes, a permit is required to replace a roof in Oregon Township (Lapeer County), MI, issued by Township of Oregon - Building & Zoning Department (Construction Code Authority). The Construction Code Authority publishes nothing specific to roof work: its building permit guideline sheet, building permit application and residential fee schedule name no roofing line, no size or cost point and no reroof exemption, and the township's Building & Zoning Department page names none either. With the Authority 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 Authority has published nothing applying that relief to roof work. The township's page adds that "Section 3.02 of the Township Zoning Ordinance requires Township residents to obtain a zoning permit before constructing any structure within the Township." The Authority's fee schedule lists "Construction Started Without Permit - job red-tagged - ADMINISTRATIVE FEE CHARGED" and a 3.5% credit card surcharge. To schedule or cancel an inspection with a clerk, call 810-667-0420; the Authority's 24-hour scheduling hotline is 810-664-0981. The office, at 1075 Suncrest Dr Ste A, Lapeer, MI 48446, is open Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM and Tuesday and Friday from 7:00 AM to 11:30 AM.
