If you are going to erect, construct, enlarge, alter, repair, move, improve, remove, convert or demolish any building or structure, you must first apply for a permit and call for inspections along the route. Of course, said Ray Noble, assistant director of the Salt Lake County Building and Zoning Enforcement Department, such is not necessary to do some paintor paneling But if you feel the project falls under the category of the legalistic listing, youd best call and check before you start work. Improper zoning or the lack of inspections could cost you hundreds, perhaps thousands, of dollars and result in an unsafe structure ing County Jurisdiction Mr. Noble, working under the direction of Director Darrell Maynes, has jurisdiction in the unincorporated areas of the county. If you reside in an incorporated town or city, check out the location of similar agencies there. All use just about the same standards, following closely the National Building Code. Remember, you must know first of all if the property is zon for what you want to build, then you have to check to see how close you can build to the property lines or adjacent property. Several inspections may be necessary as your work progresses on the roof (remember Fashion Place Mall m Murray?), the power lines, plumbing, etc The purpose of the building permit is, of course, to control the type of construction and the use of property to insure that the county continues to be a safe, beautiful area in which we can live, rear our children, work and play, Mr. Noble said He said he feels it takes little imagination to picture a community with no restrictions and with jerry-buiprojects constructed at random throughout the area lt A warming trend is expected tc begin Monday, with highs moving into the 70s and lows Monday night in the 40s and low 50s five-acr- e project aimed at reduc- h v S 4 I ?

F. Ziegler noted that ASAP not only deals effectively with the individual defendant, but has some general preventive aspects. The operation of the task .orce is well known among the drinking community and there is some indication that many persons are much more discerning in their drinking habits than before ASAP existed, Judge Ziegler said ( , $700,000 Federal Grant ASAP seeks to reduce the number and severity of alcohol related motor vehicle accidents in a Wasatch Front area, from Box Elder to Utah counties, with about $700,000 m federal funds Available this fiscal year, according to John Dame, ASP acting director. Briefly, the project is administered by a nine ian staff headquartered m Salt Lake City. Tlurteeq Utah Highway ' Patrol troopers and officers, plus eight policemen and sheriffs deputies, serve in the arresting task force. ASAP There is no single fee for the permit It depends how large the project is and how many inspections will be necessary. e For most projects, a $5 bill will cover it. Ordinarily the permit can be issued immediately while you wait. Sometimes, however, legal entangl-ment- s V around-the-hous- X necessitate a delay.
