Gas Line Permit Requirements in Wilsonville, IL
Macoupin County does not issue building permits inside incorporated villages (county permits cover only unincorporated areas, and only new construction with septic at $100 flat). Illinois has no statewide residential building code; counties and municipalities adopt their own. Wilsonville has no village website and no published building permit ordinance. The phone number (217) 999-6123 was last verified in 2011. State-mandated layers still apply regardless of local code: Illinois State Plumbing Code (IDPH-licensed plumbers), 2021 Illinois Energy Conservation Code, and electricians regulated by local ordinance. All rules for Wilsonville should be treated as IRC 2021 baseline guidance only; residents must call the village office or visit the municipal building to confirm before starting any work. Macoupin County contact for reference: https://macoupincountyil.gov/whats-happening-now/licenses-permits-zoning-information/, (217) 854-3214 ext. 918.
Wilsonville does not publish a building permit process online and we could not verify a current building authority. The guidance below is based on baseline IRC code (the most commonly adopted residential code) plus state-mandated layers. Before starting any work, call the village office at (217) 999-6123 to confirm what permits and inspections actually apply.
