Also called the Preliminary Inspection Report's diagram, the violation sketch lays out the property's frontage with each concrete flag numbered and annotated by defect category, so a contractor can quote and schedule based on the exact scope rather than guessing from a drive-by look. Because DOT only requires repair of the specific flags marked, an overly broad repair (or a too-narrow one that misses a marked flag) can create cost or dismissal problems. Bringing this sketch to your first contractor walkthrough speeds up an accurate estimate.
