Folks, this is a solicitation for professional advice specifically related to roofing. Scenario:
Local government authority sub-contracts building code permit and inspection services to a for-profit firm. Said firm does not require permits for re-roofing. The applicable code does not provide for this. Consultation with the State ended in the decision that said local government authority, and sub-contracted code inspection firm, are in violation of State law. State is requesting a complaint to be filed to initiate a "performance review" of the local government authority and the sub-contracted code inspection firm.
As is, the roof in question is improperly installed as a consequence of not meeting State residential code requirements.
How would you advise your client?
How would you act in response to the State request?
Thanks.
