Get that statement on a piece of paper with the official's signature. Maybe 
something like an informal drawing submitted for a plan check. I've had 
more than one experience where the contractor was told, over the counter, 
that something was perfectly ok, and then, when the inspector (or the 
neighbors) saw it, things changed.  A friend wound up having to install an 
huge unplanned  water tank for fire sprinklers after having been assured 
that the barn was close enough to the hydrant to not require it.  He could 
have easily shifted the barn's foundation 3 feet on the graded pad (to make 
it close enough) had the first guy actually made the call.  The problem was 
that the original opinion wasn't on paper, so it wound up taking many 
months (years?) before it was all thrashed out.
