Default Do you ever get "permits"?

Believe it or not, the local municipal government requires a permit for ethernet and/or telephone jacks.

The permit fee is $50 and inspection fee is $120 (for up to 10 jacks) so adding a jack or two would cost the homeowner $170 just for the permit.
And since these clowns only inspect from 9am to 4pm, I'd have to take vacation time from work to get the actual inspection.

Can you say scofflaw?


Next thing you know, the municipality will require a permit for each cordless phone or WiFi device on your home network. 8-)
