Rockford sits at the center, with Loves Park and Machesney Park to the northeast, Belvidere and Cherry Valley, IL to the east, and Byron, IL to the southwest in Ogle County. Each town has its own permit office, and the rules are not identical, so the roofer you're matched with checks what your town asks for.
In Rockford itself, the rule is simple. Rockford requires a permit for all roofing work. Your roofer pulls it through the Building Department (425 E. State St., 779-348-7158). Homes in a historic district need the preservation commission's approval first.
