• <br />• <br />r~ <br />POLICY IS <br />1/7/04 <br />ITEM: Consideration of amendment to the Building Official Agreement with <br />Little Canada, and appointment of Steve Westerhaus as the Building <br />Official <br />SUBMITTED BY: Heather Worthington, City Administrator <br />REVIEWED BY: Roger Knutson, City Attorney <br />EXPLANATION: <br />Summary: In 2002, the City signed an agreement with Little Canada for provision of building <br />inspection services. In November, the two city administrators met to discuss the agreement, and <br />the performance of the building official. Both parties agreed that the arrangement was working <br />very well, and that staff was pleased with the performance of the building official. At that time, <br />both parties had some recommendations for improvements to the contract, including a specific <br />provision that will allow for fire inspections (this had been a service included under "building <br />inppections"); and a billing rate adjustment which will require Falcon Heights to pay 35% of the <br />cost of the Building Official, and Little Canada 65% (the previous agreement had Little Canada <br />billing Falcon Heights at an hourly rate for those services). This will amount to $35,791.70 per <br />year which will be billed to Falcon Heights. This is still considerably less than the private <br />contract Falcon Heights had up unti12002. <br />ATTACHMENT: <br />• Revised agreement with Little Canada for the provision of building inspection services <br />ACTION REQUESTED: <br />• Approval of the revised agreement <br />'13 <br />
