Some Good News

Finally some good news:

Just got off the phone with Ventura County Fire (trying to find out what plans I need to bring with my form 126 [the fire sprinkler stuff]):

1. If the structure is within the City of Port Hueneme, we don't need to have the water purveyor section of Form 126 filled out (since all of PH is developed, there's no need to double-check the water hydrant coverage/pressure)
2. After talking to the rep, he thinks we may be under the threshold of needing the sprinklers at all (since they count the existing garage in the existing square footage, we may not be doubling our size, after all)
3. Their processing fee is $194.
   

Just called Ford Graphics. They'll print out the six sets (two for each of the bidding contractors), plus two sets of the coversheet for the Fire Department. He'll call me back later with THAT cost.

[UPDATE: That'll cost us $155 and change.]
