10 Tex. Admin. Code § 10.606 - Construction Inspections

(a) Owners are required to submit evidence of final construction within 30 calendar days of completion in a format prescribed by the Department.

In addition, the Architect of Record must submit a certification that the Development was built in compliance with all applicable laws, and the Engineer of Record (if applicable) must submit a certification that the Development was built in compliance with the design requirements.

(b) During the inspection, the Department will confirm that amenities committed in the Application have been provided and will inspect for compliance with the applicable accessibility requirements. In addition, an inspection using National Standards for the Physical Inspection of Real Estate may be completed.
