Love'em or hate'em, city (municipal) inspectors have a job to do. Some don't appreciate the way they do their job, or they way they're perceived to be doing their job, but if you intend to efficiently accomplish what you want in the world of real estate, you better learn to love'em, even when you think you probably hate'em....
Fact is, dealing with (building, plumbing, etc.) inspectors is a lose lose proposition unless you bite your lip and keep your mouth shut. In fact, making nice (kissing ass) is probably the best approach at ALL times. Unless you've never heard the phrase "you can't beat city hall" you know what I'm talking about. You CAN'T! You can holler and jump up and down all you want, if the man says you need 6" copper pipes to the toilet, he can make you do it! End of story! Unless you want to take the city to court. Yea right.
So, once again, my advice is to play VERY, VERY, VERY nice with the man....if you ever want to see that project get approved! Oh, and, make sure your contractors heed the same advice....or be there when it's meet-with-the-inspector time!
