stay on target

We're getting close.
I've talked to the L'Anse township zoning guy, who talked to the township supervisor, and they both think that there'd be no problem with a year-round home.
So what do I need to *insure* that there's no problem with a year-round home? A letter from the township? Do I need to spend a chunk of money to hire a lawyer to get some kind of zoning forbearance? Suggestions?
We're talking about a township with of population of under 2000, and the zoning guy is saying, "Well, gee, I dunno. I didn't even think that this section had any kind of overlay on the zoning map. I talked to the supervisor and he said that he thought it was all agricultural."
Argh!
The only thing left to decide is how much the interest I'll be paying, so we can figure the monthly payment. It'll be a land contract with a 5 year balloon, and I want to have at least $20K saved for the refinance, so I'll need to save about $335/mo for the refinance. Budget-wise, that leaves me looking at about 7% interest, max. And I'll need cash for the closing costs, too.
*Big breath* This is it!
