I get what people are saying but the builder should have known the codes and I bet he was the one who ended up eating the loss.

I agree, I can see how the guy would be ticked over his view. If he bought his house with the understanding that his view would never be blocked, and some jerkoff comes along and builds higher than code, I'd be ticked off too. Regardless of whether it was his fault or the builder it really doesn't matter, what's right is right and it should be fixed.
