Passed Inspections

If your project passes the inspection, the inspector will provide you with verification that the inspection was passed.

Failed Inspections

If your project does not pass an inspection, the inspector will inform you of what needs to done to bring the project into compliance and whether formal enforcement actions will be taken.
