> Yeah that's all foreign to me, as I live in a county that has no real code and no inspectors. I build what I like on my property.

Really? If you wanted to build an abattoir, or a factory, on the property your house is on, that would be allowed?

You still have to have county zoning approval to put in a business. Or live down a quiet lane and don't say anything.

In that case, all that's happening is that the county is making the determination instead of the municipality. Again, there is agreement that there should be some kind of control on what can be built where, and the disagreement is on what that should look like.
