Tape recorder at a progress meeting?I'll bet the GC doesn't like that.As far as permits around here we can put money up front with the inspection department and phone or fax in permit requests for smaller jobs ie service upgrades new spec homes and small commercial.As for plan revue as long as the plans are on file the inspectors assume you have the intent of purchasing a permit and will grant an inspection.Any questions or concerns the inspector has about design issues will be noted at inspection time and passed on in written form to the plan revue board,the GC,the owners rep and the electrical contractor.This sure helps when it comes to change orders to correct drawing errors
