The codes are what they are, like it or not, and you knew it from the start yet still did the job contrary to code anyway. If you had a binding contract to do it the right way you have no recourse but to do it right until such time as you can get the code changed. If you had no contract then my suggestion would be to remove your work and either redo it to code or tell them to find someone else to do it. As for changing the codes, I imagine most states have specific building codes for public projects such as sidewalks, roads, etc, especially when such a project would have to be handicap accessible under federal law. If that is the case your town may be catching heat from the state or feds because of substandard work and may be under threat of losing funds if the projects aren't done properly. The only way to know for sure would to be to get involved in the town politics, see for yourself, and get the change made from the inside.
