Who’s name is the permit under?  

If only three rooms and the back porch are being updated, in order to get the plans approved for a permit, do I need drawings for the entire house or just the areas being changed?

Additionally, the county also makes you buy a operating permit every year that is $175.

@Chelsa Analei Seawolf - I would think the subdivision wouldn't be as difficult as permitting a new structure on one of the parcels. 

Your utility company will require that your electrician pull permits and have a final inspection prior to bringing the upgraded service to your property, so make sure you hire a licensed electrician.

If it is not permitted vegetation (think illegal), who will get/take the credit/blame?

The only problem is,they may have stocked good board for the ceiling, and the bad board for the walls.Back when the drywall shortage happened here in tampa bay area, they were pulling board from where ever they could get it,you had to put your order in 6 to 9 weeks in advance( basically when you planted your permit box, you ordered your sheet rock).

Responsible use of the ecosystem for livelihood and recreation I can accept with a system of licensing that pays for care of the habitat (I've paid thousands in licensing for the care of wildlife habitat).

I don't think Jason is picking a fight, if you have info we don't have, please enlighten us, we will do the same for you when the time permits.

If I were interested in "historic employment data" that's what I would goggle.There are building starts, building permits, new home sales, real estate sales and real estate loans closed on a monthly and quarterly basis.All economic indicators, GNP, CPI etc can be justified as a watch list for real estate activities.
