Dewane......do U mean an actual double barrelled lug, or two wires under one lug?

As you discribed the inspection report I find it to be a very generic report. Kind of like a guessing game without making contact with the AHJ to clarify what he is reporting about. I suggest you doing that first before you do anything. Then you know what his explicit complaint is.

The complaint may be that you put two conductors under a copression connector approved for only one conductor in the meter base, in the main connections inside the panel or on the neutral bar main connection or the grounding bar main connection or you have installed more than one white branch circuit neutral or grounded wire under the same screw of the neutral bar, or you have installed 1/2 size breaker where full size breakers only are listed and labeled for use in that panel. Could be an intirely different complaint that I didn't even think of using his terms of his report.

I would strongly suggest that you contact the Inspector by phone and ask him to clarify his thoughts on his inspection report. Then come back in and we may be able to answer as to where he is coming from, and what to do to correct the infraction he speaks of.

See you soon
