These inspectors regularly inspect the City's capital improvement projects and utility permit <br />projects performed by private utility companies. While most City services are provided by regular City <br />employees, the City occasionally contracts with outside firms to provide specialized expertise or to <br />provide additional capacity during peak work periods. At this time, one budgeted engineering <br />construction inspector position is filled with a regular employee, and funds from the other position were <br />used to fund a contract position for a period of one year beginning in September 2018. Due to the high <br />volume of capital improvement projects under construction, a third inspector is required, and the <br />proposed amendment to the existing contract will provide that support. <br />On December 13, 2017, staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Construction Inspection Services to <br />the eight firms on the Engineering and Transportation Division's pre -qualified consultant list for this type <br />of work. On Friday, January 5, 2018, five proposals were received.
