INSPECTION REQUESTS.
Fort Worth City Code ch. 29, § C06.4
in effectC06.4 INSPECTION REQUESTS.
(a) It shall be the duty of the person doing the work authorized by a permit to notify the building official that such work is ready for inspection. The building official may require that every request for inspection be filed at least one working day before such inspection is desired. Such request may be in writing or by telephone, at the option of the building official.
(b) The person doing the work authorized by the permit shall make sure that the work will stand tests prescribed elsewhere in this code, before giving the above notification.
(c) It shall be the duty of the person requesting inspections required by this code to provide access to and means for proper inspection of such work. When the work is within a residence where access is dependent upon the occupant being home, it shall be the duty of the person doing the work to make arrangements for inspections. Failure to make arrangements within a timely manner or the inability for the inspector to do the inspections at the arranged times will result in reinspection fees being assessed to the person doing the work.
(d) Exception: If the reinspection fee was for a “Final Inspection” for a residence where access is dependent upon the occupant, after the fee has been paid by the person doing the work additional arrangements for the final inspection and penalties for not receiving such inspection shall fall on the occupant.
(e) This shall not relieve the person doing the work from having to correct improper work and such accompanying penalties should the work fail reinspection.
