Construction Inspection
Priority Outcome: Create a more livable and sustainable city
This program administers contracts and permits for construction of public works projects such as streets,
bridges, sewers, storm drains, street lights, traffic signals, wastewater treatment facilities, and public buildings
through inspection at sites and in plants engaged in manufacturing related construction materials. The
activities include approving and processing payment for work acceptably completed; recommending
acceptance of completed public improvement projects; approving subcontractors; and maintaining the legal
record of construction. The program also provides inspection for recreation and parks projects and airport,
port, utilities, and wastewater treatment facilities, and the installation of erosion control devices whenever
grading operations create a hazard to dedicated and future streets within the City. It also provides inspection
for private development work encroaching in the public right-of-way.
