Good Morning,

This is my first correspondence with Code Talk and I look forward to your 
responses.

I recently met a client with a home on a canal on the Polk County side of the 
Kissimmee River who is interested is constructing a seawall, dock, boat lift, 
and boat house along with a two car garage and porch addition. A sizable project 
that would be welcome in this economy. My client's neighbors have built 
substantial seawalls, docks and boat houses without permits and told my client 
that because the structure touchs water no permits are required. 


I know the "no permits required" is a bunch of nonsense but having never been 
involved in such a project I'm not sure of other requirements: Does my Certified 
Residential license qualify me to do the project, does the DEP get involved, how 
about Swift mud?

I have put in two phone calls to the building department in the last three days 
but get voice mail and no response. I guess I could take half a day and visit 
the Building Department but that would require me leaving the job site we are 
currently working at and nowadays being hands on is my source of paying the 
bills. 


I look forward to your responses.
