“We now do inspections on relatively minor projects until 7 p.m. most weeknights,” said Jim Muir, chief building official. “We are also creating flexibility to make appointments on Saturdays, but we won’t have a set schedule on the weekend until we see how many homeowners need that convenience.
“Time can be a real pressure point, especially for people who may need to leave work to meet with inspectors,” he added.
The new hours are part of a variety of operational changes in progress at the county to promote efficiency.
