§ 9-1.801. General.

Construction or work for which a permit is required shall be subject to inspection by the Building Official and such construction or work shall remain accessible and exposed for inspection purposes until approved. Approval as a result of an inspection shall not be construed to be an approval of a violation of the provisions of this Code or of any local, state, or federal law. Inspections presuming to give authority to violate or cancel the provisions of this Code or of other local, state, or federal law shall not be valid. It shall be the duty of the permit applicant to cause the work to remain accessible and exposed for inspection purposes. Neither the Building Official nor the City of Modesto shall be liable for expense entailed in the removal or replacement of any material required to allow inspection.
