I received the permit packet and will sign the Affidavit of Smoke Alarm and Carbon Monoxide Alarm Installation, scan it, and send you the signed scanned version, and place the hard-copy in the permit packet. I'll also sign the BOE-64 and send it back, despite already faxing a copy and mailing another copy (from the digital version) to the assessor's office. Another question: will I need to extend my application since the work will be done after March 15, 2024? Or, can I just leave everything alone?
