Description
Block walls under construction @ east & west side property lines, extending to sidewalk. Doubt there is a building permit, based on what is there.
1. Using gray precision block. Precision block not permitted in front yard setback unless stuccoed or veneered.
2. No pilaster footings. City code requires pilasters @ 8' O.C. max in front yard setback. Pilaster footings are 24" x 24" x 16" & require (4) #4 rebar vertical @ each pilaster, per city standard detail. Neither of these are in evidence.
3. Vertical rebar is #4 bars which are projecting approximately 5' above grade. CMC permits 3' max solid CMU wall in front yard setback, with balance of 5' max fence height to be decorative iron.
Please investigate permit status and guide the builder to construct his CMU walls in accordance with City of Corona standards.

Horizontal rebar is in contact with earth. Not per code.
Code requires 3" cover @ subterranean reinforcing steel.
There are no dobies in the hole.
There is no way this steel could have passed city footing inspection.
Builder has poured footing this AM @ east side of property.
