12. Permits!

What a novel concept.

A lot of people are genuinely ignorant of the need for permits. Too bad.

Recently I did some home improvements. New windows and doors. A pergola. Two entirely different things. The first was done by a major window and door company, the second by a local guy. Both got permits, and in both cases I heard back from the city permit person. I want to say that I feel very good to know that at some point in the future when my home goes to be sold, these were legal changes.
