The framing should be inspected as part of the building permit, but you aren't hiding the framing work like you do on the interior of the house - the inspection could happen anytime in the future.

The building inspector shouldn't worry at all about development permit issues. He really should only be looking at building code related issues. The lattice isn't code related.

Worst case scenario if someone would complain is that you would have to get a development permit after the fact. If you don't annoy the neighbours, they shouldn't complain. If your deck isn't of absurd proportions, you shouldn't have any trouble getting a DP after the fact, if need be. I wouldn't really worry about it.
