After 6 years of owning our property, slowly clearing it by hand, we finally decided to build something. In our case, a pre-engineered steel building with a toilet (thereby necessitating a cesspool and catchment). Sent in the permit request, and was surprised to be told we need an architect or structural to stamp the site plans. I understand an architect stamping the floor plans, but would have thought a civil stamping the site plan would suffice.
And so begins the permitting adventure...
