It was another grueling inspection. This time the city sent two inspectors to the house. They looked at the dirt in the pool shell for about 10 seconds and said we passed. Whew.
Prepare yourself for the trials and tribulations of one person's attempt to backfill an in ground swimming pool and cover it with synthetic grass. If you're at all interested in undertaking a project like this first please read this cautionary tale.
What you think you may know about synthetic grass is probably wrong and what salespeople tell you about their synthetic grass is probably not all that true either. Do a lot of research and talk to as many people as you can. Bottom line, don't believe anyone... including me.
