430 CORNELL PL Building Permit: Attached addition to residential house

Luke Ross of Ross and Sons is pulling a permit to add an attached addition to the house at 430 Cornell Pl for owner Judith Handmaker, a 396-square-foot residential expansion estimated at $35,000. The plans call for code-compliant footings and foundation, 2x6 exterior walls with R-13 insulation and R-38 ceiling insulation, sealed truss diagrams for inspectors, required smoke and CO detectors, an operable emergency escape window for each sleeping area, and inspections to verify bathroom fixture placement and crawl-space ventilation — in short, a snug, code-happy update to the house.
