A few requests this Agent can handle.
My 1920s home is in the Old Town district, and I want to replace six drafty wood windows. What should I check in this ordinance excerpt?
I need to repair a front porch on a house in the Maple Street historic district. Make a checklist of details the commission application should cover.
The local rules mention visibility from a public right-of-way. Compare placing solar panels on my front roof versus the rear roof.
