Yep. It's definitely a revenue generating process for the municipality. I don't mind doing the inspections to make sure contractors aren't cutting corners, but the high fee rate and having only 3 inspectors for the entire area of 17,000 residents, 5000 homes and 400 businesses is just ridiculous.

If they hire more inspectors, then the fees will increase to pay their wages and bennies.
