				Anyone know building code?
			 
 I'm trying to figure out - if I want to build an open-roof free standing pergola, are there regulations?  Do I need a permit?  Does it need to be a certain distance from the main building structure?  Does it matter if I am anchoring posts into the ground vs. leaving them free standing on the ground?
 I've found some info, but can't really get a clear picture.
