TauntonBlizzard2013

Colleges starting to come out saying students will need to be vaccinated to return in the fall.

Looks like rain back in the forecast for Sunday now

Yeah... my parents had a hell of a time with a porch going through that process at the first house they owned. It was close to wetlands and they gave them hell about being able to build it.... I guess because a porch and deck etc etc is basically an addition to the actual house structure, not an accessory detached building. After that experience they never pulled another permit for anything they did. Sold two houses after they did a good amount of work without permits and it was never an issue.

Thanks, I have a couple months to sit on it. The only reason I’m hesitant is because I’d be asking for a variance to place the shed basically on my rear property line. As I believe it was mreaves who pointed out, my yard is in fact odd shaped, the rear line runs on an angle, so basically anywhere I put it out back, one corner of the shed is going to be close to the property line, unless I angle the shed to face in a totally different direction from my house, which would look kind of ridiculous. It won’t be permanent... 120 square feet and I believe it will sit on blocks... so yes, if it had to be, I think it could be dragged a few feet in some direction.

Yeah, it seems a lot of towns are like that. TAN doesn’t require a formal permit for anything under 200 square feet, but they do want zoning sign off for everything. Well see. I really don’t want to invite the headache of having someone come out if they decided to do that. Looks like the penalty may be 3x the normal fee for doing something without a permit.

Uh?

Thanks folks. It meets the front and side setback requirements. The backyard is woods and owned by the preserve I belong too. I am within a couple feet of that on the backside, so my worry is I’d need to apply for a variance, and then it becomes a huge issue.

Anyone here put in a shed without a permit? The shed is small and doesn’t require any sort of building permits or anything, but they want you to send them a fee with a design of where the shed will go, so they can give you “sign off” I like to do things by the rules, but it seems to be opening up a can of worms. Additionally, I live on a private street and the shed will sit on my rear property line, and the land behind it is owned by the preserve I belong to, not the town or anyone else. My neighbors are aware and don’t care. Should I bother?

Yup... the lasting effects also aren’t over. Eventually the government aid and beefed up unemployment and stimulus checks are going to end. A lot of people will still be unemployed or under employed from what they were used too.

I got the Moderna shot on Thursday... my arm was sore, and I had slight body aches and fatigue.... this was expected though, especially since I have already had covid. Side effects appear to be more prevalent in people who have already been infected because your body is responding immediately

Definitely doesn’t look like Stein.

Yeah... I don’t know how else you would have done it outside of age for the most part. The statistics showed severity increased steadily with age. If it had been a free for all, you would have had a bunch of 20 somethings bowling over granny to get their vaccines first.

Negative. I went to cvs in carver off of 44. I was up at like 130 last Saturday and went online and had the pick of whatever times I wanted. Does anyone know if Cvs locations are rotating who has the shots? The guy who gave the shot said they are shutting down after tomorrow until people who had this weeks doses need their second.

Just got first dose of Moderna. As I’m waiting my 15 minutes I already have a few horns coming out of the side of my head

McKesson is another one of those businesses that raked in insane profits during the height of the pandemic. Not all that dissimilar to other businesses, they were either the only game in town for some stuff, or the only place that wasn’t closed down and not allowed to function. Target, Home Depot, Lowe’s, Walmart, etc etc.

Currently sewing a couple shirts together for tomorrow after I get the Moderna shot and grow a second head

Hi

Lol, yeah. To each their own, but I’d be far more concerned with the potential long term effects of actually having the virus. Like the random heart issues popping up in healthy basically a symptomatic patients. People think just because they only got the sniffles that it is NBD. Who knows what your insides look like. Im not going to go down this road because I don’t want to get into a pissing contest, but you have to be really careful about the negative stuff you read about with regards to the vaccines.... a lot of terrible anti vaxx sentiment out there.

It’s pretty disheartening to see all this summer stuff being postponed or canceled. That seems to be a massive overreaction and pessimistic view of where we will be in a few months

Not sure if anyone is familiar with Taunton high school, but the practice football fields and track throwers area were completely underwater for weeks from the Taunton River flooding. Water must have reached 6 feet high in the disc cage at its peak... we couldn’t practice for a long time. What is now the brand new turf baseball field also was underwater. Hope that doesn’t happen again.

I’ll shop around... I guess I could do without the power wall... which seems to be a Tesla thing. Digging a bit more, a lot of disastrous stories about Tesla lol

I’m having 3 yards of stone delivered Thursday, it’s basically an extension of a walkway. I bought some azaleas to put with it as well. Can the azaleas be planted directly into the stone? Or should I mulch around them a bit and then stone the outside?

It was a bit odd to be honest. I get the need to convey a message... but the impending doom headline on all these news stations made me lol. Impending doom, what the hell has the last 14 months been?

So as far as Tesla solar goes, what is the story with the SRECs? Ive been doing some digging and there is some commentary on how Tesla keeps these? And that these credits are losing value in general? I’ve talked to Matt (butterfish) and the profit from those alone would make the system worth it, if it stays the way it is. Can anyone explain why they would keep them, or what the story may be with that?
