The measure of damages under a breach of contract case is the amount that it would take to put you back in the position had the contract been performed. If, for example, another contractor had to finish the work and pull permits, or if you were fined, then the damages could be measured as the cost to complete the work properly. At this point, your best course of action is to negotiate a successful resolution.
