Okay. So my questions are . . .

If we take away some regulatory laws, doesn't that mean municipal inspectors have less laws to enforce wrongly, thereby making it easier on you?

Are there case laws that affect how regulations are interpreted, thereby making these people follow a stricter, more literal interpretation of these laws?

If appeals don't work because the inspectors are corrupt, incompetent, whatever, what course of action do you take? Do the courts even hear situations like this?

Lastly, I'm getting the feeling from you and cgod that half the time these people say one thing one day, and another the next. How normal is that and why does it happen in the first place. If you ask me, rules are rules. There shouldn't be so much uncertainty.
