We were told our permits were approved last night. I ran to the computer to pay the fees and at the last minute we realized it was the wrong permit. At least I didn’t pay for the wrong one. Turns out the lingering issue is with our drainage plan and the original side sewer easement mess.  Way back when King County did the big Rainier Valley combined sewer and overflow they really messed up with recording the correct information as to the side sewers in our property. What was  recorded is something different then what was actually installed. Not only did this exacerbate the legal battle between us and the neighbor but now it is impossible to submit plans that reflect the actual layout of the pipes in the ground. Now we have to submit plans that show this wrong information. Supposedly this can be corrected in the field. Seems like we’re shooting ourselves in the foot. I have visions of the inspector forcing us to hook up to the wrong side sewer or requiring another corrections cycle.
