Amazing, the CA eco-nazis tell you what lighting you put in your house?! Unreal........
If the permit/inspection process actually provided quality inspection and feedback, there would be some value to it. However, when I've dealt with the city on projects, I always find that I know more about the issue at hand than they do. It's a tax, pure and simple.
As somebody else said, it all comes down to the quality of the work being done, because permits and inspections won't save you from a shady contractor. My father in law is a contractor in central KS, and never has to deal with inspections or permits. He does very high quality work, and never has any issues. Imagine, being able to build your own 5000+ sq ft home, without anyone to answer to. That's exactly what he did.
