This is PermitBase’s published record for Sedgwick as of 2026-07-06. It has since been superseded — see the current record. A historical record reflects what PermitBase had verified at that time; it may not capture a real-world change the jurisdiction had made but PermitBase had not yet verified, and it includes any errors we later corrected.

Building Permit (New Construction, Addition, Alteration, Roof/Siding, Foundation, Relocation)
VerifiedThe Town of Sedgwick's single, unified Application for Building Permit covers new construction (single-family, multi-family, garage, carport, and non-residential structures), additions, alterations (adding/moving walls), roof and siding repair/replacement, building relocation, foundation work, and new fences. Reviewed and approved or denied by the Town's Zoning Administrator. Electrical and plumbing work items on the same form are explicitly routed to the State ('State Permit Required') rather than reviewed under a town-adopted trade code, since the Town has not adopted the IBC/IRC or any other model building code (Sedgwick Town Code Chapter 152, 'Building Code,' is explicitly Reserved).

Building Relocation / Demolition-Adjacent Work
The Town of Sedgwick does not publish a standalone demolition permit or fee schedule. The closest analog on the Town's unified Application for Building Permit is the 'Relocation of Building' checkbox item, covered under the same general $60 flat fee and Zoning Administrator review as all other work types on the form. No separate demolition-specific requirements, fee, or process were found after chasing the Town's website, the downloadable Building Permit form, and the full Code of Ordinances.
