City Scene August 2017 Need a building permit? One-stop center can make it quicker Looking to do a simple remodel or addition? Maybe you want to ask an expert, “How do you build this?” The city’s new One-Stop Permit Center gives residents and small businesses easier access to a building inspector who can answer questions about the building code and review simple plans. Depending on your project, a simple building permit could be issued the same day. The most eligible permit types include single-family home additions, alterations to a home’s interior, decks (new or alterations), garages, pole buildings, and reuse of an existing building for small business. The One-Stop Permit Center, located at the Community Development office at 80 Columbia Ave., is open from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. To avoid potential delay at the front counter, call [PHONE REDACTED] between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. to schedule an appointment. Learn about outdoor burning restrictions Did you know that most outdoor burning, including land-clearing burning, is against the law within Marysville city limits? Smoke from outdoor fires causes air pollution and can be particularly harmful to people with asthma and respiratory ailments. According to the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency, which enforces violations of burn restrictions, parti- cle pollution from wood smoke “can cause heart attacks, strokes, asthma attacks and even premature death. These impacts affect our quality of life and our economy.” Only recreational or cooking fires are allowed with restrictions, and fires must be extinguished if they harm anyone’s health, damage property or cause a nuisance.
