Sea View Part 11 (Inspection part 2)

Once Robo-inspector came down from the attic, Ariel went over and erased part of his memory. She deleted all information about the "special" use for the attic area. Robo-inspector was still able to report any code violations, but only those that did not interfere with what the attic would be used for.



J. R. Katscan had arrived on site by this time, and was not to happy about being refused access to the attic and storage room. He was even more disturbed by the presence of another inspector. These building inspectors can get real territorial!



Robo-inspector came out to meet with J. R. Katscan. At first J. R. was very standoffish. He finally settled down, and listened to Robo's report. While J. R. was not necessarily happy with the lack of information from Robo, he had little choice. This is a FAE residence, and subjected to FAE rules and regulations.



In actuality, J. R. really has no authority on this job site. I guess that since this house was built in his "territory", he felt that he was in charge.



After some further discussion with Robo-inspector, J. R. turned to me and informed me that, he would issue the Certificate of Occupancy from his department. He assumes that Robo-inspector will be issuing a COP from the FAE building department.

Hurray!!! I"m really happy that this project has come to an end. Things were pretty good when I was working for the "Group", but there has been a lot of tension since Ariel has been in charge. The Phist Bros. and myself will be on site early tomorrow to clean up. Then all that is left is to move the Sea View to the "Tree House". Remember, you have not seen anything in the attic!
