How do I know if I need to take out a building permit? I thought the rule was that it is needed if the outline of the house is changed with an addition, major change, deck or shed. But inside, the owner can do whatever he wants. Of course for the money, the Town will do a very quick inspection. In return they will up the assessment and get more tax money from the owner. In this town, there are permits (published in the paper) being taken out for $600 of wallpaper!
