        "text": "Permits for historic-home restoration typically include standard building, electrical, and plumbing permits, along with specialized historical preservation permits if the property is designated. For instance, in areas like Oakland Hills or Montclair, specific design review and historic alteration permits might be required by the city's planning department. It is critical to confirm all necessary permits with local authorities before work begins, as non-compliance can lead to delays or fines.",
