Section 233.5 - Compliance procedures

(a) In areas where there is no local building code authority, upon a complaint by a dwelling owner or tenant concerning noncompliance with the provisions of section 233.2 of this Part, the utility will perform an onsite inspection to determine conformance with the standards concerning roofs, walls, foundation walls, floors, windows and doors. The result of this inspection will be provided in writing to the owner (and tenant when applicable) of the building.

(b) Whenever the utility finds, as a result of such inspection or notification by the local building code authority, more than one outstanding complaint against any particular contractor, wherein a dwelling constructed by such contractor or builder was found to be in noncompliance with the applicable standards, the utility shall refuse to provide gas or electric service to any construction site of that contractor or builder until all existing violations are corrected. The utility shall undertake random inspections of the future construction work of a past noncomplying contractor or builder until such time as the utility is satisfied that the applicable standards are being met.
