It that’s it. No fines, no requirement to build it properly. They’re also supposed to get an inspection when the foundation is done to ensure it’s at the right height. No way they did that.
Edit: I should mention, it's a contextual DP. They're just ignoring the rules.

This might be one of those situations where maybe you should double-check that your property lines are where you think they are.
That said, how would they even expect to do siding or stucco of any kind on that with the fence there? Any finishing work would be nearly impossible.
What does the building look like on the other side? It would be pretty funny if they put the house off-center, and there was a couple of meters to the other neighbour's fence.
