Thanks John. I don't know what this sickness is, but I've never been this sick. 3rd day now.
Ric, the slab is 60 x 72, with a 12" footing. There are 3 porch's, 2 at 8 x 28 and 1 at 8 x 68. They will have a rat wall. The contractors price on concrete is about 24 grand. I'm going to check around with some local guys for a better price.
I've been dealing with the County down there for a couple of months to get this building approved. Finally got the OK from the legal dept. Good to go. I've been in contact with the HOA of the Plantation where my property is. The Architectural Review Board gave me a tentative approval, until they see the Architectural stamped plans. Then they met me in person. There are 10 homes built in this sub right now, the sub is out in the sticks, a total of 350 acres. My lot is 3 acres. All lots are owned by Doctors, Lawyers, retired FBI supervisors, head of the Citrus County Sheriffs office, "artists", and big-time contractors. They see me as a long haired, tattooed biker. I scare most of them. It now seems like they do not want me in their little world. I may have gotten a little upset with some of them and told them what I think of them. That didn't go over too well, and word spread like wild-fire that I was a screaming, angry, dangerous lunatic. Now I have to submit the plans for their approval, and I anticipate a pretty good fight with them. I will win though.
