Hooray! BOH Approval

After 2 months of waiting for the Ulster County Board of Health approval on our home site, we finally got word that it was approved more than a month ago! Due to some paperwork oversight, we never received the permit letter.

We hired an engineer (which also happens to be the owner who sold us the lot) to design the septic system with a pump. Our home is going to be located downhill from the septic reserve area, so a pump is required.

At least this first step is over, now onto the building permit process, which hopefully is a bit quicker. We have to start on the foundation soon, if we need to finish the roof before the winter hits.
