Right of Owner Builder Plumbing/Electrical

[Carey]

Many states do have permit laws that include separate plumbing & electrical permits. Although many do offer homeowners exemptions, there are many municipalities that do not. Although Illinois has the permit rule, most municipalities offer a homeowner exemption, Chicago does not.


I am wondering what many of the posters on this thread would say if the county actually enforced the ZONING that this county has. It would be a lot different to get permits if the zoning were enforced (there are ag zoned areas in the country have proportional residential requirements - making a 1 acre ag lot all but useless.)
