Cob: nc cobbers and codes

Tue Jan 28 20:04:16 CST 2003

 fist if you take offense to my disgust, disdain, and distaste with at for 
and towards  the vacation and/or seasonal transiet population, too bad. i 
make no apologies for it. i hate the annual spring migration of the throngs 
who clog the western nc roads terrified to do more than 35mph, complain 
constantly about how "where we come from we", expect and demand immediate 
service and dropping of everything to tend to their least little 
inconvenience, want better roads more services to make them happy and lower 
taxes for them nbut not the year-rounders and find the locals quiant, 
colloquial,red neckish and backwards. if you dont like it sell out go home 
and dont come back. 
   being there in tourist and part-time residents paradise otherwise known as 
the boone/banner-elk/ski resort area you would do better to build a much more 
conventional house or build outside of and around the code. there is much 
resistance that will center on the "rights" of other property owners there to 
"preserve and protect" their property values.... think i'm kidding or just 
full of bull? then just spend two years in asheville hendersonville and find 
out for yourself,i did. yes klieworks will be of use but they want a nice 
healthy fee too and they may have very little influence ove avery county 
inspectors.  oh, you can build if you build big enough and expensive enough 
and are certain and sure to send lots of business to local lawyers architects 
engineers etc. and make sure that word of your wanting to build without the 
use of modern day materials doesnt get out to all the local lowes stock 
owners either as they will tell you that modern standards and codes are there 
for your ( but they forget to say "lowes" too) "protection". they will 
conveniently defend the pitiful state of modern construction and the use of 
the "minimum" state codes as further protection for you and their supposed 
and self convinced right to ever increasing property values.  trouble is 
coming that will be rearing its ugly head this spring and summer when the out 
of state transients begin their annual migration and find out about your 
intentional efforts to in someway interfere with their "right" to live in a 
community that is designed towards and built to meet their every little 
transient need/want.
 but if your property is way off the road, just put in a small building add 
200 amp 220 service to it per code,they cannot stop you from doing this 
regardless of what "they" will tell you, get a well and septic per permit, 
and just go about your business doing s you please without worrying about 
transients temper tantrums. that or find a much less transient fearful 
government and populace, somewhere like wilkes county or alexander counties 
maybe?. 
   if its worth it to you and you dont mind spending money for no reason 
other than because you really want to do this then more power to you.
