The rest of the process, as we know it

I have no doubt that we'll look back at this list and laugh, but here's the process (that we know of now) to get to our building permit.

In true Agile fashion, we did build all of this out using Post-its:

But for a cleaner version of the Post-It wall, here it is:

• CAD approval
• Create site plan
• Apply for clearing and grading permit (we think the forestry permit is a part of this)
• Septic design
• Septic/well installation
• Locate the well
• Clear road to well
• Gravel
• Build pad for well drilling
• Well approval
• Contractor drill well (& build pumphouse, pumps and systems)
• Health department water testing
• Bring in container/shed to place on well pad
• Trenching (we will do this)
• Septic contractor install
• Finalize house design
• Building permit
• Get street address
• Electricity
• PSE Project Engineer assignment
• Trenching primary to transformer and conduit
• Site prep for transformer
• Trenching from transformer to well site & conduit
• Trench from well site to house site
• PSE install
• Cable install
