Mount Pleasant will be unable to accept permit applications during a brief period in mid-March while the Village transitions to a new online permitting system. This interruption will affect applications for planning, building inspection, fire suppression systems, and right-of-way construction permits. The new online permitting system is created by BS&A Software, which provides similar services to other municipalities in Wisconsin.
The Village will accept permit applications through its current OpenGov system through Tuesday, March 11. At midnight on March 11, the system will go offline.
The temporary interruption begins on March 12 and will last about a week while the Village implements its new permitting system.
All active permit applications filed on or before March 11 will automatically move to the new BS&A system. People using the OpenGov system must create a new username and password to use the BS&A system. Those with an existing registration with BS&A for other municipalities may use that same account with Mount Pleasant. However, they will need to receive separate approval from BS&A.
The Village expects to accept applications through the new BS&A system on Mount Pleasant’s website starting March 19, but that date is subject to change.
More information will be released during the transition. Sign up to receive Village emails with those details by sending an email with the subject line “BS&A” to info@mtpleasantwi.gov.
Mount Pleasant officials appreciate your patience during this transition. The Village will make every effort to ensure these temporary effects on permitting operations will be as short and smooth as possible.
