This is the amount of paper needed to apply for a building permit. Architectural drawings, engineering drawings, site plans, wind sheer tables.
FYI
Kinko's charges by the square foot for large xeroxes. Total price: $225. This day.
fair warning: on block island or manhattan or in missouri, we can be a little salty
what happened to that sweet man at Kinko who was going to make it all better?
ReplyDeleteI am currently trying to finish a building permit for a pool, I feel I need a graduate degree from MIT just to fill it out. Conversations w/ my small town building inspector go like this... "well you're gonna need to fill something out w/ the Board of Health first" Oh really like a permit,"yep", OK, do you have one of those, "Nope", OK where can I get one? "Well you can call Pia up on Haze Hill" OK do you have her number?, "Nope" ....Somebody help me
ReplyDeleteI have found that Staples is cheaper than Kinkos but what you really need is a friend who works in an architectural office....
ReplyDeleteYeah. This architect friend of mine helped me out with some stats, and they were not only cheaper, they were better.

When the bombs fall, only rats will survive because there will be more then enough paperwork to feed 2000 generations.
