I wouldn't mention the idea but a flat roof without a railing is a definite health hazard to a blind guy. They should buy that one. ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill Stephan To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2008 3:06 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] permit approved
My wife and I are seriously considering putting a railing on the flat roof of our porch and creating a sort of martini deck out there. I've been told it can be difficult to obtain a permit for that kind of thing, but I have no idea why. I guess a visit to the zoning department is in the offing.

I just had to get one. My next door neighbor replaced a porch pillar and was told that he needed no permit. I just did the same job and had to purchase a $40 permit. Could it be it is because his son is a police officer? ----- Original Message ----- From: "chiliblindman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, November 18, 2008 8:27 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] permit approved I had to go to a town meeting tonight about my deck building project. They were kind of worried what was going on since I put the roof on it and had a second floor in it. Since I studded the west wall facing the road it looked like a full blown building and said I needed a permit and had to meet with them. I explained what was going on and it was put on the table, voted and approved on the spot. They did ask that I fill out the paper work and get it to them as soon as possible. Now I legal. .............bob [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Send any questions regarding list management to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To listen to the show archives go to link http://www.acbradio.org/pweb/index.php?module=pagemaster&PAGE_user_op=view_page&PAGE_id=33&MMN_position=47:29 Or ftp://ftp.acbradio.org/acbradio-archives/handyman/ The Pod Cast address for the Blind Handy Man Show is. http://www.acbradio.org/news/xml/podcast.php?pgm=saturday Visit The Blind Handy Man Files Page To Review Contributions From Various List Members At The Following address: http://www.jaws-users.com/JAWS/handyman/ Visit the archives page at the following address http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ If you would like to join the JAWS Users List, then visit the following address for more information: http://www.jaws-users.com/ For a complete list of email commands pertaining to the Blind Handy Man list just send a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Groups Links __________ NOD32 3623 (20081118) Information __________ This message was checked by NOD32 antivirus system. http://www.eset.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
