county inspectors used for harassment

[JohnDW]

"For all those with a passion for cooking at home. How would you feel if DOH inspectors were allowed to come into your home and inspect your kitchen to see if it meets the same standards applied to restaurants and if you fail the inspection you get a big fat fine? Well that's identical to what happens when a person who wants to build their own home with their own two hands is subjected to with permits and building codes. Chew on that a while."

Okay, but what if this home kitchen is the vector for a hepatitis outbreak? Or, more to the point, what if this theoretical hand-built home is a fire hazard or a rodent sanctuary? I do appreciate your insight into the legalities of this issue, but I think the community must attempt to impose some standards, even though they're often applied unfairly and arbitrarily. It's an unfortunate reality that a significant number of people have neither the skills, nor the decency to construct anything more than a squalid hovel. It's also a shame that much of Puna was conceived as some sort of a land fraud scheme and then left to it's own devices. My advice to birckl is to get your house finished -- by hook or by crook -- and have done with it. Life is too short to wrangle with the Building Department.
