Next came the disappointment. We did not get our final building permit until late November 2001, This delay for no apparent reason - caused us to give up the original schedule and introduced new requirements by the town of Marana. We discovered that an internal sprinkler system for fire protection was now required. But finally the men were able to start the steel reinforcing bar work for the footings. Once they got started, we thought they would never stop. Rebar, rebar and more rebar.
