It depends on if you will be replacing the decking, and what type of roof it is.  

Side entrances - I am considering replacing the dilapidated concrete side entrance steps and landing with a conservatively styled wooden staircase and a small wooden deck landing with railings.

Don't let that stop you.If your deck violation is improper height of railings, don't let a contractor talk you into a whole new deck/porch.

Should have been a 4x6 (or longer) shower and a smaller Jacuzzi, a nicer size for a tub is actually smaller than a whirlpool you have on the deck or pool area, that were popular in the past, what is nice is having the tub in a deck space so the little lady can line up all the bath sauces, perfumes, soaking treatments and candles some like to have (while the stereo or big screen is on watching Love Story).

For improvements, a deck or patio can be a good investment.

Simple remodel steps for carpet, kitchen upgrades, appliances, paint, fixtures, flooring, doors and fixed deck.

PS: Question: is the "fiber board" the roof decking?

The rooftop pictures are just the north and south view from the shared roof deck upstairs.

Toledo Blade Article HereToledo officials said the city will appeal, but Mayor Wade Kapszukiewicz added the judge’s ruling confirms something he’s believed for two years: the lead law ordinance was well-intentioned but ultimately was almost impossible to enforce.The appeal will focus on broader legal questions about city governance beyond the lead law, the mayor said.
