1977. Almost 40 years ago. Things have changed a bit.

From Harry's county web site
"Property owners may construct their own dwelling on their own
property without a license (with proper permits). "

Since these are generally state law, I am sure I could do it in PG
too. I do agree, the process is more complicated these days but that
is what happens when the government gets to be out of control. The
inspection process has not changed much and that is where safety comes
in.

Why is the government out of control? The electrician and plumber who
did my genny got their permits without delays or difficulties, and the
inspectors came out in short order.

I simply what qualifies for a fast tracked (while you wait) on the
Calvert County web site. They are really just for things that should
not really need one anyway. (sheds, decks etc) At a certain point it
is just a building tax.
Permits here are tougher than they are in Maryland but it is mostly
just corporate welfare, benefitting people with a large compliance
department over the small guy. That is true of most government
regulation tho. If you can send a bunch of lawyers and some carefully
targeted campaign contributions, regulation really does not apply to
you.
