All we want is a new sun room!

You'd think that if all you're doing is tearing down the crap that the previous owners had in place and trying to do it right then the city wouldn't require you to jump through all of their hoops.

But NOOOOO!!

"Sorry sir, but if you're tearing down the roof over your patio, and plan on putting a new one in place, then you'll definitely need a building permit."

"Say what? I'm only talking about a section of patio that is maybe 10' by 20' at the most."

"Sorry sir, but Lake Havasu City wants you to bend over and grab your ankles so that we can laugh at you. Not only that, you're gonna pay us to laugh at you. What do you think about that?"

Mumble, grumble, bitch, moan, scowl...

The only plus side to this is that we'll finally get rid of that ugly-ass blue shack-thing that the previous owners built themselves.

It's a pain, but it'll be worth it. I'll post some pics of the destruction/construction process as soon as I'm able. 3-5 business days once the $300 plans are drawn up and approved. Dirty sons of b-----s...

Now they want a damn stamp of approval from the stinkin' Health Department.

What gives?? This is why more people don't get building permits. Too many hoops to jump through.
