I know we are probably not to code on this, but hoping the city won't care on the RPR. I've looked at the land use bylaw and they talk about set backs and projections into the yard from fences etc in regards to decks and patios.
We have 3 concrete stairs leading to our back patio door, it's open on either side with no hand rail.
If this will be an issue, any recommendations for a contractor who can help before the survey company comes next week?
