Bill;
the occupancy permits you've googled appear to be fire codes applicable to rentals.

rentals,(think ski bunnies, brew, and our states cash cow) have gained thier share of bueractratic notability, which is a good thing imho..

we can actually get an electrical inspector, as well as a fire marshal to do a site visit, also a very good thing.

this doesn't apply to single fam residences, and i have heard that the farmers here have had thier say somehow in the matter (i'm not sure how they factor in)

certian zoning administrators here, depending on the town, have taken up site visits to private residences , however i think they are simply ensuring a viable structure for a tax sale?

perhaps they, through some sort of municipal involvemnet, will incite something statewide ...

Roger,
thanks, i do try and express hazards to people here, as anyone whom operates with his liability in mind would...
