BUILDING PERMITS!

JDGREEN4ME · Jan 22, 2003

Same thing happened to me...I was clearing out a spot to build on and a township inspector stopped by "just to see what I was up to"... I was in the process of getting my permit at the time of his "visit" /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif /w3tcompact/icons/clever.gif

No thanks...things are bad enough here in Taxachusetts...for a while I was considering a move to Maine until it changed its slogan from "Vacationland" to "Taxationland"...sounds like the guy in Utah has the best deal..

Yep, have been here since 1987 and love it , strangers ask how are you in stores and really what to know. The taxes are so high because we have very little industry, mostly farms. The town is 18 sq. miles and has about 5,000 people. I know the guys out west would call that a big city, but in New Jersey its Paradise! In our town the minimum lot size is 2-5 acres, so 10 houses to an acre is not something we have to look at here. Still some nearby towns have this and have all the headaches that go with it. One town not far from here had a 73% increase in taxes in ONE YEAR, the town folks went nuts, city council listen and brought it down to 70%!!
