Funny Permit Form

Thought I'd share this section of a local municipality's permit application form:

Is that for an Amish house with no electricity?

Wire it and never energize it.

F'n Amish with their buggies and horse poop.

Must have something similar to allow no plumbing.

When you remove the HVAC, electricity, and plumbing from a house, you're talking a substantial amount of money.

You're also talking about no light to read a magazine while siting on the crapper.

Not true. No plumbing in the house doesn't mean you can't do like me; keep a whale oil lamp in the privy.

'Course, catching those whales and rendering 'em down is a bit of a trick here in central PA.

I worked on one Amish house, they did have indoor plumbing as well as radiant hydronic floor heat.

I think the well pump was run off a diesel generator.

They are allowed to use electricity in that fashion, just not connected to the grid.

Another interesting tidbit: since they don't have electric to run a vacuum cleaner they do the whole house in vinyl flooring.
