This page contains links to web sites and pages outside of the City of Visalia Website which have to do with the building construction industry (with an emphasis on Central California). TIP:Use your browser's "find" feature to help you quickly locate keywords. For example, information on how to build safe playground equipment can be found with the words "product safety", resulting in the Consumer Product Safety website and eventually http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/pubs/playtips.html, which turns up as you search the CPSC site.
