Rewiako DEPARTMENT HEAD REPORT TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: John A. Lobaito, City Administrator FOR: July 2, 2001 Regular City Council Meeting RE: Building Permit Review Services With the increase in building activity, the Community Development Department has been experiencing long delays in the building permit plan review process. In the last few months, it is not unusual for the issuance of a building permit for a new house to take six-weeks. Previously, this same permit was issued in two-weeks. Minor permits such as decks, sheds and pools are experiencing similar delays. What use to take five days is now taking ten to fifteen days. To maintain the same level of service as in the past, it is recommended the city utilize the services of a consultant for plan review for the next 60-days until the new building inspector is hired. Salary savings through vacancies of the inspector and city planner positions would be used to pay for this service. To date, the current salary savings is approximately $11,000. It is estimated, based on projected workload, that the plan review services would cost approximately $10,000 over the next 60-days. It is recommended that the City Council authorize the expenditure of an amount not to exceed $10,000 for plan review services. mmg
