The Apex Town Council recently approved a measure to temporarily waive permit fees for certain home improvement projects. During the Home Improvement Holiday, Apex residents who obtain permits between April 2 and June 29 will not pay the Town’s permitting fees.
 
The temporary waiver of permit and inspection fees applies specifically to:
 
· Additions to existing residences.
· Remodeling of existing residences.
· Roof replacement for existing residences.
· Accessory Structures (decks, storage buildings and the like).
· Enclosures such as patios, screened porches and sun rooms.
· Block walls and/or columns for existing residences or their yards.
· Swimming pools, spas, hot tubs for existing residences.
 
Homeowners will be responsible for obtaining all applicable permits through normal procedures.  What a great time for Spring Cleaning and to renovate your home by saving a few pennies.  For more information there is a great post at the Apex, NC Website
