good morning guys. off the redhead's boat and at the lady's house to bang together walls. figure they can be painted just as easy after assembly. just noticed the bold print on the building permit: FAILURE TO RECORD NOTICE OF COMMENCEMENT MAY RESULT IN YOUR PAYING TWICE FOR IMPROVEMENTS.........
Punch elite and water going here.
Always good to read the directions Dean. You should especially know after the last project.
just called Permit Department. they say the job does not require Notice of Commencement BUT requires Final Inspection.
If no foundation, plumbing or electrical to inspect before being covered that would make sense but the permit should have designated that.
"Notice of Commencement" isn't the same as those required inspections, or at least doesn't sound like it. F'kn municipal bldg departments, each one different with their own procedures and requirements.
And the one where I live is likely among the 10 most incompetent and corrupt ones in the entire country. Made me put a 4' wood fence around my pool equipment which was already 4' inside the 6' fence all the way around the entire yard - because "the code requires you have a fence around the pool equipment: and does not address other fences. And a little side note we had already planted 5-6' high shrubs all around the damn thing before they came up with that - but "the code requires a wood fence".
Very wealthy guy from the Uvalde area (South Texas) paid an obscene $500,000 for 2 lots across the street from me to build a large house with an airplane hanger (land has airport frontage) and fought with the city for over a year trying to get some house plans approved (saw the plans a beautiful home and probably a $2 million+ setup with the hanger. Refused to pay off the corrupt mayor and city manager so finally put the land up for sale a couple of weeks ago.
