What is the purpose of a re-inspection after an order?

After an order is issued, the re-inspection is done to verify that the required corrections have been completed and that the property now complies with the order. It also helps determine whether any further action is needed—such as issuing another order, adding conditions, or adjusting deadlines—and it updates the case file to reflect the current status. This step is not about punishing the owner; it’s about confirming compliance and guiding the next steps in enforcement. It doesn’t automatically extend the compliance period, and while the file may be closed once all requirements are met, that outcome comes from achieving compliance, not from the re-inspection itself.
