Not In The Work Area

A passing comment that it is not in the scope of the work you are there for, but that it definetly needs attention. Perhaps a notation on your correction notice.
 
SECTION 116
UNSAFE STRUCTURES AND EQUIPMENT

[A] 116.1 Conditions.
Structures or existing equipment that are or hereafter become unsafe, insanitary or deficient because of inadequate means of egress facilities, inadequate light and ventilation, or that constitute a fire hazard, or are otherwise dangerous to human life or the public welfare, or that involve illegal or improper occupancy or inadequate maintenance, shall be deemed an unsafe condition. Unsafe structures shall be taken down and removed or made safe, as the building official deems necessary and as provided for in this section. A vacant structure that is not secured against entry shall be deemed unsafe.
