HOME OWNER EXEMPTION ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
The State of Massachusetts allows the homeowner the right under 780CMR 108.3.4 to act as his/her
construction supervisor. The state defines "Homeowner" as, " Person(s) who owns a parcel on which
he/she resides or intends to be, a one or two family dwelling, attached or detached structures
accessory to such use and/or farm structures. A person who constructs more than one home in a two-
year period shall not be considered a home owner."
The building department for the City of Northampton wants any person(s) who seek to use the home
owner exemption, to act as their own construction supervisor, to be aware that by doing so you
become responsible for compliance with state building codes and regulat' s. The inspection
process requires that the building department be called to inspect work at v 'ous stages, which include
foundation/footings before backfill sonotube holes before our rou h buildin ins ection
before work is concealed insulation ins ection if re uired a a final buildin ins ection.
The building department requires these inspections before the wo is concealed, failure to secure
these ins ections can result in failure to obtain a certifica of occu anc until the work can be
inspected. le
If the homeowner hires other trades to perform work (ele rical, plumbing & gas) the homeowner will be
responsible to make sure that the trades hired secure eir proper permits in conjunction to the building
permit issued, and that they get their required i ections. Failure of the individual trades to secure
the permits and inspections as required can DE Y the project until such time as the proper permits
and inspections are made r
I, understand the above.
(Home owner/resident's signatLW kequesting exemption)
I will call to schedule all required ildilhg inspections necessary for the building permit issued to me.
