Nah, its not my problem. I have a job to do, and I think I do it pretty darn good. The Code Bubba's have a job to do and some do a good job and some really are stinkers.
What many folks don't realize is that the Code Bubba's in many if not most municipalities are under tremendous political pressure from the powers to be. Might be the Mayor, county supervisors, etc., whenever one of their builder friends gets upset because they are being forced to follow the minimal standard they complain and a phone call is made.
I kind of like it when the Code Bubba's are missing things left and right. Means more work down the road after the neighbors start talking!
