Fence installed & demolition inspection passed

City inspection came yesterday to check out the demolition and asked to have metal construction fence on the site. So I called up Quick Fence for fence rentals. They are very close to the building site around Warden & St Clair. The cost is $200 for the delivery and setup and $1 / foot / month for the rental. So this is what it looks like this morning. I’ve got the building permit posted. I’ve hung the mailbox up as well just in case.

I scheduled demolition inspection last night and city inspector called this morning. I told him that fence is erected from wall to wall. And he’s happy with that. Next inspection will be after the form for the footings are in place but before the concrete is poured.

I’ve called the surveyor (Land Survey Group) yesterday to see if they can stakeout the excavation today. But they say they are pretty booked up today and he will have to see if it can be scheduled. Since he didn’t call me back, I’m assuming that they will be doing that Friday morning. I’m not sure if my demotion crew will come on Friday to do some digging or not. If not, then excavation will have to wait until Monday.

And here’s a better photo of the hole in the ground where the old house use to be. My new house will be narrower than this but it will be longer.
