Hi guys, we've been living on our property now for over 30 years. I built it as an owner builder and everything at the time was complaint with the Victorian Building Regulations. I never got a certificate of occupancy on the property and a couple of months ago I was contacted by the council and they wanted to come for an inspection. They did this and issued "minor work orders" to bring balustrades on stairs and landings up to current regs.
I just have 2 questions regarding this.
1. Do I have to comply with this order or are they just trying to bully be?
2. Do they have a legal right to enter our house for an inspection after the work is supposedly done?
Thanks for any feedback.
