or stop in and speak to one of our knowledgeable building inspectors.          BCD is here to help you make your improvements go as smoothly as possible.
Don’t forget that with any outside project, your local zoning
determines the property line setbacks and buildable locations
on your property. BCD staff can determine if your project
meets the zoning for your neighborhood. Some scenarios
require a trip to the Zoning Board of Appeals if your project
doesn’t quite meet the zoning. Variance applications are due
at least 4 weeks before the meeting date so be sure to check
your zoning ahead of time to avoid delay when you’re ready
to get started.
Once you’ve made your decisions and are ready for the next
step, follow the permit requirement guidelines and submit
your building permit application to the BCD office for review.
Most applications are reviewed in about a week, but that time
increases as spring approaches, so get your application in
early. Permits are valid for 6 months or more so it’s a good idea
to get your permit early so you’re ready for the nicer weather.

                                 Ann Peck on Karate...
                                 “The main thing we teach is my
                                 body, my spirit...”
                                 Little did Ann Peck know that her 5-year-old son thinking
                                 he was a super hero would lead to her getting a black belt
                                 in karate.
                                 But there she was in her 40s and taking on a new hobby. She
                                 became so skilled in it that she now teaches classes at the
                                 Perinton Community Center.
                                 “He wanted to be Batman; he was going around and kicking
                                 everything,’’ she said of her son, Wally. “So I figured I would
                                 put that energy to use and sign him up for karate lessons.”
                                 After a few months of taking him and her daughter, Sara, to
                                 Fairport Karate at Perinton Square Mall, she decided she
                                 might as well take some classes too. She became a fourth
                                 degree black belt in March. Her daughter stopped taking
                                 karate, but her son, now 21, is also a black belt and helps
7                                teach classes at the PCC.
                                 When COVID shut down the Fairport Karate studio in March,
                                 the owners decided not to keep the school going. So Peck
                                 collected some instructors to run programs through the
                                 recreation and parks department.
                                 They hold three classes a week on Wednesday nights,
                                 teaching beginners to adults, from age 7 on up.
                                 “The main thing we teach is my body, my spirit,” Peck, who
                                 has lived in Perinton for 37 years, said. “We like to teach
                                 students discipline, respect and to have confidence in
                                 themselves. That is really what martial arts are about.”
                                 Peck said she has never physically had to use her karate skills
                                 but she has used the mental process many times.
                                 “When someone is being verbally abusive to me, I use my
                                 martial arts skills to keep myself calm,” she said. “That is
                                 what we teach. Confidence is being yourself and controlling
                                 situations around you.”
                                 How much damage could she do if she did decide to use it?
                                 “I have seen women smaller than me bring a 20-something,
                                 strapping young man, to
                                 his knees,” she said. “You
                                 just use their body weight
                                 against them and redirect
                                 their energy. I have flipped
                                 men way bigger than me.”
                                 For now though, she is just
                                 happy to give residents a
                                 safe place to go to learn
                                 how to better themselves.
                                 “It is not about just
                                 teaching kicking,” she
                                 said. “It is about teaching
                                 confidence and how
                                 to avoid dangerous
                                 situations. Hopefully, my
                                 students come away
                                 with these very important
                                 aspects in their life.”
