In 6 months I can put stamped concrete in if I desire- just between rock and hard spot now thanks.
There was a duplex burnt down few yrs ago- it too was 100 yrs old- it had a gravel drive on each side of the 30 ft wide 2 story- and there were 2 curb cuts for the drives still there also never addressed and one drive leades right into the house (new) forcing me to come up with some kind of appealing bumper guard so some drunk frien dont run thu living room- all un addressed when permit was issuedOne last question,,,
This is a new house on a new lot, that never has had a house?????
Who is the permit holder? you? your contractor? if your contractor, then I say he's responsible to produce in accordance with the law. If he conned you into applying for the permit - Caveat emptor.

had duplex . burned down. i bought lot for 25k because city said no sewer or water tap fees.One last question,,,
This is a new house on a new lot, that never has had a house?????
I disagree. Guess it depends on the state. When i got my gc license, a major part of the exam was the ibc.The contractor’s license focuses on the ability to build the project not on his ability to know the code. .
I disagree as well- I had a electrical inspector tell my son in law journeyan who was told to stand inspection for jobs he did not do- " I told you to correct all these violations last time- if you do not- I will try to jerk your license" in Michigan. So saying a guy can not be responsible for something he did ( use his buddy inspector to go around city ordinance to submit site plan) just so he can build and collect on house seems preposturousI disagree. Guess it depends on the state. When i got my gc license, a major part of the exam was the ibc.
Builder pulled permit- above or on another board someone said a builder is only required to build it to code but not to know the code- said owners responsible for that---I question that thinking.
