These comments should be considered a preliminary courtesy review, and not a thorough review under the auspices
of the CT State Building Code. These are not exhaustive or limiting comments, do not create an estoppel, and are
not an approval. A formal Building Permit application accompanied by Construction Documents per CT State
Statutes and the CT State Building Code are required for a formal review, and work is not authorized until a Building
Permit is issued by the Building Official. It is the applicant’s responsibility to coordinate State and Town
requirements at the time of application for approvals.
