CAUTIONARY STATEMENT TO OWNERS OBTAINING BUILDING PERMITS
101.65 (1r) of the Wisconsin Statutes required municipalities that enforce the Uniform Dwelling Code to provide an owner who applies for a building permit with a statement advising the owner that:
If the owner hires a contractor to perform work under the building permit and the contractor is not bonded or insured as required under §101.654(2)(a), the following consequences might occur:
The owner may be held liable for any bodily injury to or death of others or for any damage to the property of others that arises out of the work performed under the building permit or that is caused by any negligence by the contractor that occurs in connection with the work performed under the building permit.
The owner may not be able to collect from the contractor damages for any loss sustained by the owner because of a violation by the contractor of the one and two-family dwelling code or an ordinance enacted under §(1)(a), because of any bodily injury to or death of others or damage to the property of others that arises out of the work performed under the building permit or because of any bodily injury to or death of others or damage to the property of others that is caused by any negligence by the contractor that occurs in connection with the work performed under the building permit.
