I read the article, and I don't think this is necessary. I always thought that park services doing this was meant to curtail traffic in National Parks, and not to curtail peoples' freedom of speech. I don't think those guys have much of a case.

What I mean is, why do Republicans want it disbanded? Because of financial waste? I always saw the work they do as being beneficial to workers and to keep everyone safe. Am I missing something, here?

It's the little things like this that, when looked at collectively, make people see the importance of every animal, plant and insect. Together, they help make the ecosystem what it is and everything should be allowed to grow and thrive.

I haven't heard a peep either. He's going after government waste, so I'm sure the FHFA might come up on the chopping block sooner or later.

Yeah, typically, when you apply for a building permit, safety and legal concerns are more important than the actual putting-together of a structure. That's been my experience, at least.

That last part makes a lot of sense. The burden of proof on anything concerning an amusement park ride should be on the owner of said ride, not the renter.

And that should be the last of the red tape, I would imagine. Thank you for the link. This is one of those things that's good to have for no specific reason other than to have it.

That would be your best bet. Get it straight from the horse's mouth. Out west, there are so many empty spaces in the boonies; you make sure you can't see a house or business, and you're all set. Fire Away!

I couldn't find any specifics online, so I'm asking here. When people post signs on street corners, business lawns and personal lawns, do they need a permit to do so? I know that billboards require permits, but what about all the signs that make everything look ugly that advertise political...

Remember that tunnel that Elon Musk wanted to build between California and Las Vegas? I wonder if that's possible with people instead of cars. If it is, the question would then be whether you need a permit to dig and build that kind of system under undeveloped land. Like a desert.

After reading the article, it looks like many bills are packaged as one. Pork sandwich, anyone? I am confused, though. Why would they lift the amount of permits that can be issued while decriminalizing the act of street vending? Without the extra bill, would even vending with a permit be illegal?

California needs to focus on the realities of the situation, crime, and pricing, and leave the analyzing alone. Real world problems require real world solutions.

During the course of my work, I've learned that there are instances where a structural engineer is needed to assess a building first so other contractors, like electricians, can know in which way they need to proceed with work. Has anyone here ever needed one? If so, how did it work out for...

Being an American has its advantages, but they have only been halfway there for decades. Somewhere between being their own country and being a state. I think it's time for Puerto Rico to become a full-fledged state with all the benefits that come with it.

Today I learned. But there are so many areas where we can scatter ashes that no one would ever know unless you tell them. I can understand National Parks requiring this, but if you own 100 acres out in the sticks, you're not going to bother with a permit.

Electrical contractors, especially with an ROC, charge for time and labor. Since it takes both to fill out a permit, you will pay for that and the cost of the permit. So yes, you can save money by doing it yourself. If the contractor also comes out to meet the electrical utility company that...

If nuclear power is so safe, why are people against the storage of the waste? What exactly is it that they need to dump, and how does that differ from the process of making nuclear power?
