Comments: CAT 2 VB FILE OPENED ON 5/11/10. CC INSPECTION FEE PAID 10/3/14 BUT NOT COMPLETED. 10/01/2014: The owner has canceled the single-family Code Compliance Inspection and will order a new duplex inspection. Because some of the inspectors performed their inspections and will have to reinspect the property, only $200 can be credited for the canceled inspection, per Steve Ubl's decision. The result is that the duplex Code Compliance will cost $360, not $560. RS 10/03/2014: DSI Code Compliance Inspection Fee Paid ($360)
