and now for the STOP work order

Monday March 10, 2008

Someone, somewhere, has it in for us. We are not sure now if it is the Building Inspector (most likely candidate) or perhaps a neighbour. Today, the Safety Inspector showed up and put an immediate stop to all work. There were 2 infractions - the Stucco guys outside and their scaffolding and ironically the temporary stair railing. We are not worried - it had just been removed last week to accomodate moving around those 12' drywall sheets. In the middle of the day on Monday the drywallers only had 1/2 the main floor left but the Safety Inspector said stop immediately.

Builder says it's odd the Safety Inspector came by this late in the project. He wondered if next door neighbour had called but we doubt it because they usually complain to us personally first if they see an issue. Not sure what it's all about but Builder just needs to reinstall his temporary railing and call the guy back apparently.
