And what would happen if, in the appeals period, the permit was rescinded,
but the owner had already started or completed work? would the now
non-permited work have to be re-installed?
Sounds to me like a lawsuit waiting to happen. Why grant the permit until the
owner can go forward with the work with assurance? It doesn't make sense.
I think you are very wise to pursue changing this.
