The issuance of a certificate of correction does not guarantee compliance with the City’s Codes, nor does the Director nor his or her duly authorized designee(s) accept any liability for non-compliance with same. Such certificate shall be considered by all parties as the City’s best effort to make known to the owners and purchasers of violations known on a given property at the time the inspection is made.
(a) The City assumes no liability or responsibility for the failure to report violations that may exist and makes no guarantee whatsoever, since there may be further violations which were not detected, which may arise in the future, or which may only be determined by a licensed electrician, plumber or other specialist at the expense of the person desiring such an inspection.
(b) In issuing a vacant building inspection, the City does not thereby insure, warrant or guarantee to the holder thereof, to his/her assignees, or any other interested party that such inspection report contains all of the violations of the Cleveland Codified Ordinances, State or Federal law.
(c) In issuing a certificate of correction document under the provisions of this chapter, the City does not thereby insure, warrant or guarantee the quality of repair or standard of work completed in the correction of violations listed on a vacant building inspection. Such document should be construed only as a statement by the City that some or all of the violations listed on the certificate of inspection have been corrected to the City’s satisfaction.
