Note to self: never work for an AHJ that needs an "inspector general". This whole thing reeks of the patronage system gone bad (as it usually does). Why in the world would a deputy building commissioner be contributing to the political campaigns of the town president? How did he become deputy building commissioner in the first place? His certifications (PM Inspector and Residential Building Inspector) barely qualify him to answer the phone for most building departments. Why would an assistant to the town president be conversing directly with town staff, anyway? They have a "town supervisor" who should be handling such issues.
