198B.062 Mandatory nature of approved construction documents -- Role of on-site

inspectors.

All buildings shall be constructed according to the construction documents approved by

the building official having jurisdiction of the building in accordance with KRS

198B.060. No on-site inspector shall order changes in the construction of a building

which are contrary to the approved construction documents. If an on-site inspector finds

that any part of the construction is contrary to the approved plans, the on-site inspector

may order correction, and if the on-site inspector believes that the approved documents

are incomplete or in violation of the Uniform State Building Code, the on-site inspector

shall refer the matter to the building official having jurisdiction for the approval of the

construction documents. Any approved changes to the construction of the building shall

be recorded with the construction documents before the certificate of occupancy shall be

issued.
