I’m in a “subdivision” with 3 acre plats and farm land making up about 200 acres behind my piece of property. This shop is the first thing going on the property as I live in a subdivision down the road from this new property. Don’t have electricity yet even on the 3 acres. Trying to get some storage area now and at the end of the year I’ll put in a sewer, electricity, and water. Ended up paying for the site specifics.

All for the benefit of a shitter in my shop once we finally build a home out there

What does “site specifics” include?

The building itself may be structurally rated, but if the Risk Cat 2 requires more formal paperwork and uplift/foundation information that would generally be extra.

$2500 seems like a lot, unless they are including the site specific data collection and assessment.

Glad I didn’t need a permit for my building. Seems like a headache for little value gained.

My neighbor got permits for a carport cover and had it built. After the inspector signed off on the carport cover he came back and closed the walls in.
