He did stop over to inspect their work, so I was guessing it came under his
juris.  He just wears a short sleeve button down shirt and dockers.  Not
sure what "means-and-methods" means, but I can guess.  We've heard from
others that the dude is pretty inconsistent with his statements, including
to us.  One day we have to write up a proposal to give to the village board
for approval, the next day we don't need to provide anything because it's
for something under our roof line, then the next he needs a write up for our
file at their office.  The guy next door gets told flat-out no for a similar
application.  One day, a refurb permit is a flat $25, the next it's based on
square footage for the same space.  We just point and laugh and be on our
merry way.

The vinyl would probably accelerate more than the asbestos would decelerate
the flame spread.

the ricekty-looking scaffold may have been a matter of "means-and-methods,"
or that it really wasn't so rickety, or that it didn't fall under his
responsibility as The Zoning Dude.  Or he didn't give a rat's ass, or that
he hates the window guy.
