Okay, so I think at this point, the Septic guys think I'm a complete psycho (and the LC building dept may be right behind them in that thought!) I've been stalking my builder and the septic peeps for the status on the design for about a week and a half now. Fortunately, I think they finished up everything 3 days early!! Of course, they probably rushed through it so they'd get rid of me. And, frankly, I'm fine with that! So, that's good news! The design is now with the LC health department, and once they say "ok", we should have a building permit within 24 hours. Well, at least that's what the lady at the building dept told me as I hovered over her shoulder the other day looking at the status of my permit application. Fortunately, the building department has approved everything, and they are just waiting for septic to say ok. Since neither department seems too busy right now, I'm hoping the design is good and we can start digging the week after Thanksgiving!
My builder is getting things moving as well. We "slipped in" a huge truck on the property today to begin creating the driveway. Not sure if that was allowed, but if asked, I don't see any trucks out there now, so I don't know what anyone is talking about! The driveway is carved out and I think they are going to try to get the parking area in front of the garage as well as the circular drive created as well. It's a loonnng driveway - a bit over 350 feet, so getting the space for the real trucks to get back there is needed. This way we can start digging & hauling dirt once we get the permits are squared away.
So, I continue to pick out plumbing fixtures, cabinetry and close out designs on the house. Getting all this done before we even start building should leave me plenty of time to stalk my builder when we are finally moving along with the house!
Here's a sneak peak at the 2 color combo options I'm debating between for the kitchen....
