I agree, ask your agent.  My personal contention is that if you're 
pouring structural concrete, as in the tower base, you should be able to 
pull a permit for that.  Does your township require a permit if you pour 
a floor for a new garage, or a patio, or a sidewalk?  If so, then you 
should be able to obtain one.  If you're lucky (?) to not need anything, 
contact the agent and document all conversations with the agent and the 
township.  Get a copy of the applicable ordinance. Gd luck, Phil  KB9CRY
