Construction without permits!

While walking through the village in recent months, some of you may have noticed some new construction has taken place, without any planning permission or permits! In the window of Uncorked! wine shop and tasting room at 14500 Big Basin Way, a new village has been developed. Okay, so it’s not a big construction, it's a village of birdhouses. They are the Carefully Corked birdhouses to be exact, made right here in Saratoga by resident Sally O’Hearn. It started as a hobby a couple of years ago when Sally decorated a basic wooden birdhouse with used wine corks, as a gift for a friend who enjoys wine and loves nature.
