AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Appropriating Additional Funds for Professional Services to
Accommodate the Need for Building Inspector Services ($160;000)
MEETING DATE: July 15, 2015
PREPARED BY: Community Development Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution appropriating additional funds for professional
services to accommodate the need for Building Inspector services
in the amount of $160,000.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Building Division has existing contracts in place for building
inspector and plans examination services. Recently a Building
Inspector II retired and the recruiting process has proven to be
difficult. Building and Human Resources staff are working together on a salary analysis for the Building
Inspector II position and this will add additional time to that recruiting process. The amount being
requested will provide funding for a contracted position for the entire fiscal in the event we are
unsuccessful in the recruiting process.
Staff recommends adopting a resolution appropriating additional funds in the amount of $160,000 to the
Building Division Professional Services account to cover any necessary costs associated with contracting
out the Building Inspector II position.
FISCAL IMPACT: Costs are covered by Building Division Revenue -
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Building Inspection Fund (27081000)
