Hosts say new law effective July 1 limits permits for some small residential projects
Summary
On the podcast Mac and Courtney said several bills took effect July 1 and identified one (referred to in the episode as House Bill 803) that they described as exempting certain nonstructural residential projects valued under $7,500 from building permits; they advised listeners to check the county web page for specifics.
Mac and Courtney, presenters of the 2 MC podcast, told listeners that several bills became effective on July 1 and that one — identified in the episode as "House Bill 803" — changes building permit exemptions for some residential projects.
Mac said the law exempts "certain nonstructural residential construction projects with a total value of less than 7,500," and both hosts cautioned that not all projects are covered. "So don't get all hopped up and excited about it yet," Mac said, advising listeners to consult the county web page for details.
The episode did not include a direct reading of the statutory text and the presenters spoke in conversational terms about the bill number; the hosts' reference to "House Bill 803" appears in the recording but was prefaced by uncertainty. Listeners seeking to know whether a specific project requires a permit should consult the county's posted guidance or contact the permitting office; Courtney said the county's web page and social channels will have guidance this week.
