I agree this needs to be corrected, but I'm not so sure the municipality
shares our view. This builder has been given a green light to do whatever he
desires, whether it violates the code or not. It seems if you have the right
friends in high places, you are above the law. At this point, the
municipality has known about this (concrete wall) violation, and many
others for months and has done nothing to correct it. The construction has
been allowed to proceed unabated, even with a Cease and Desist letter issued
by the DBPR. The city attorney has been informed and a file containing
dozens of other violations have been in their hands without any action. I am
enclosing a file of just electrical items we noted on our report to the city
attorney.  *In spite of this documentation, the owner was allowed to drywall
without correcting any of the items shown in these pictures, without an
electrical rough inspection approval prior to allowing a framing inspection*
 *and without completing a required plan revision !*
