(State Building Code Section 109.1 .1 DEFINITION OF HOMEOWNER: Person(s ) who owns a parcel of land on which he/she resides or intends to re- side, on which there is, or is intended to be, a one to six family dwelling, attached or detached structures accessory to such use and/or farm structures. A person who constructs more than one home in a two-year period shall not be considered a homeowner. Such "homeowner" shall submit to the Building Official, on a form acceptable to the Building Official , that he/she shall be res onsible for all such work performed under the building permit. Section 109. . The undersigned "homeowner" assumes responsibility for compliance with the State Building code and other applicable codes, by-laws, rules and regulations. The undersigned "homeowner" certifies that he/she understands the City of Salem Building Department minimum inspection procedures and requirements and that he/she will comply with said procedures d requirements, HOMEOWNER'S SIGNATURE GG APPROVAL OF BUILDING OF ICIAL TOTE: Three family dwellings 35.00TC,,U ic fee lar er. .gill be required to comply with State Buildina Code on 127.0. Construction Control . HOME OWNER ' S EXEMPTION The Code states that: "Any Home Owner performing work for which a building permit is required shall be exempt from the provisions of this section (Section 109.1 .1 - Licensing of Construction Supervisors) ; provided that is - a Home Owner engages a person(s) for hire to do such work, that such Home Owner shall act as supervisor. " Many Home Owners who use this exemption are unaware that they are assuming the responsibilities of a supervisor (see Appendix Q, Rules and Regulations— for Licensing Construction Supervisors, Section 2.15) . This lack of aware- ness often results in serious problems, particularly when the Home Owner hires unlicensed persons. In this case your Board cannot proceed against the unlicensed person as it would with licensed Supervisor. The Home Owner acting as supervisor is ultimately responsible. __ To ensure that the Home Owner is fully aware of his/her responsibilities, many communities require, as part of the permit application, that the Home Owner certify that he/she understands the responsibilities of a supervisor. On the last page of this issue is a form currently used by several towns. You may care to amend and adopt such a form/certification for use in your community. 1g w �'". �S. �� �� � --Uel✓1_'�'Lz.��'?-���i ------ -- JV —T—.—Q�Y7-C//_!r/.-_c.•(/_✓C�ca-_O�J�'�.�/ G 2CLQ LhPn f �Y.�pI1 CCPjL f=-...-_moo__ __ L-1 ySr �Y(- c� �C�Q IC Y !
