will other units on property require inspection when inspecting garage SB9 conversion
I will have a main unit, an ADU, and a garage. They will all be detached from each other (3 separate buildings). Los Angeles allows me to convert the garage to an SB9 dwelling unit. For inspection, will the inspector need to inspect inside the ADU or the main dwelling unit (while will already have their Certificates of Occupancy issued)? My contractor indicated they might need to look in the ADU for fire sprinkler purposes (or maybe something else). Is this true? The ADU and main unit will have tenants, and I would prefer the inspector to not enter those buildings.
Thank you!
