How Specific Do You Get: Inspection Objection/Resolution Language
I rep the buyer, and the seller was replacing a Federal Pacific Panel. City is NOTORIOUS for requiring permits for EVERYTHING. In fact, their permit department website says "It would be easier for us to tell you what doesn't need a permit, here's a list:" (And it's like 9 things that don't need a permit.)
I did not specify that the electrician should pull a permit in the Resolution, but did specify that they be licensed.
A licensed electrician performed said work without a permit.
So, now that I've learned that lesson, let's talk specifics with resolutions. Of course I will be including language "..and pull all required permits" going forward.
What lessons have you learned?
