I have a permit to build my deck! It was a long process to get all of the plans together, and to interpret my city's deck details, but I did it! It also doesn't help that I have to build around a stoop, which makes things all the more complicated. The building code people were really friendly though and going through the process last Friday afternoon was pretty simple. Some of the regulations are probably overkill for my low deck (1 ft high from ground level), but it certainly will be stable.
Now I just have to keep digging the holes for the footers. Too bad my dog insists on digging in the wrong places b/c he could get it done in no time.
