I'm looking forward to seeing her photos! Does she make her own costume? I hope you had fun! Do share some funny stories here with us if you don't mind. I'm too lazy to dress up. Maybe we are just exhausted as my father was recently discharged from the hospital. We just baked a...

Did you go through a beta test before going fully live? That might give you some ideas of what you might be missing. That's all in the past, though, so I wish you good luck with the new system! Let us know how things are going so far.

Thank you for all your responses. I'm not too worried about my neighbors as the fence is not shared. The property line is more concerning, so I will clarify with the office directly.

I want to renovate my fences to use PVC. The height should be around 5 feet, but I think some parts of the fences may be taller than the rest. Where should I go to apply for the permit, the state or the county?

I remember that Florida did not require a permit for emergency repairs after the hurricane Irma back in 2017. I've also heard people got their permit fees waived. The offices definitely need more personnel and extended working hours to speed up approval for building-related permits.

This BBC article says the local protesters in Barcelona are taking things into their own hands. I know it's frustrating. I will be mad if I'm late for work because the public transport is full of tourists, for example. But how do we deal with the income loss? I believe there are still ways to...

I hear we can camp on the land under the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) without any license for up to two weeks. I'm not sure if the environment is as good as camping at the national parks, though. Cass, I once tried camping with my siblings in our own garden. As silly as it sounds, it works...

Considering the risks of messing up the uploaded documents and taking longer to approve, I wonder if there are specific reasons why some offices still keep the online permitting system. I know some types are approved instantly, but I feel like those are too few in comparison.

I first heard about the problem of having too many tourists in Japan, but now European countries are affected too. Do you think a permit different from a visa can solve this issue? I don't mind applying for the permit if it means not getting sprayed with water pistols or fined for hiking in the...

The government will be able to track the cannabis sold by the winners, but it sounds like they can also use the data of other applicants to check and control the situation. That seems better than going back and forth on the system like Thailand.

It does feel anticlimactic to delay you for almost a month for something like that, but I'm glad there was nothing wrong with the plan. I hope you have already found someone else and received the permit to start building. Good luck with your project!

If I'm not mistaken, a seller's permit and sales tax license are the same. I will double-check them after this. From what I understand, I probably won't need a business license, but I should look into building and environmental permits if the goods are produced at home.

The pressure must have been immense, but thank you for not giving up! I can see why you and Eric feel strongly about proper enforcement, but we will need many more people like you fighting against the corrupt. Maybe it's better handled by an external group, though I know that doesn't guarantee...

The early access lottery doesn't sound much different than starting a regular sale session with a first-come-first-serve format. I imagine removing an additional booking period will be easier on the system, so we can prevent empty campsites like Noctis said.

I hope there were no serious issues with your proposal, Cass. Did they ask you to bring some additional documents for the meeting? That could be a sign. I look forward to hearing your updates about the meeting.
