“Dear PoPville,
I’m reaching out as a DC business owner that works in the construction industry to see if other businesses and/or DC residents have been told by DCRA, now known as DOB/DLCP, that records of their projects permitted inspections are not on file? Myself and one other business owner have recently been told that Pepco was never informed of a final inspection to get their side of a heavy-up or supply lines change because DCRA never sent them over the final inspection reports. In another case, another business owner I know was recently told that they had a permit open that had never been inspected even though the owner already had the C of O in hand, which meant the inspection had occurred. When my company followed up with DOB for our client, who is still waiting on Pepco, we were told the final inspection had never been done, therefore because it was beyond a year from the date the permit was pulled, we would need to pull a new permit and get a final inspection.
