Nov. 24, 2007 - Columbus Requiring Building Permits

The City of Columbus is requiring permits again for some home improvements.

From the Columbus Dispatch "New building requirement" subtitled "City won't go on prowl for work permits" says the City of Columbus will not go looking for unpermitted jobs but there will be a 450 dollar fine for those caught without paperwork on home improvements that require a permit.

"$75 building permits for backyard decks, window replacements, new roofs and siding jobs" are required again because of the new state building code.

I have to replace the existing siding on my home and need to know if I need a building permit for this?

I'd look at the City of Columbus website if I were you but it says siding jobs... so I am sure that would require a permit!
