A quick question if anyone have experience in this. I wanted to change my siding myself. I called the town of North Hempstead building department today. They said a permit is required if the work involves "Brick or Stone". I asked them specifically if I wanted to change my siding to stucco. They couldn't give a clear answer and just repeated permit is required only for brick or stone. It sounded to me that it doesn't require a permit for that work, but I just wasn't 100% sure given that I can't get a clear yes or no from the building department employee. Wondering if anyone here knows this? Thank you for your time.
I asked town about something and I got the reply of “if we know about it”. I took that as a if we don’t know we don’t care and ran with it. Not the right answer but I went with that.
