It looks like it's not connected to the roof (carport) or the side of the house (just built right next to it), so I think we are okay? And no electrical or plumbing in it!

Thanks!
No you would not need a demo permit because it wouldn't call for a building permit to begin with because it is well under the 200 Sq ft threshold which would call for a BP.

typical COA building distance is 10ft. Over 100 sq ft and you need a permit. An HOA might have stricter requirements.

So would that apply to a carport? Covering under 120 SF?
