<br /> <br /> STAFF REPORT <br /> <br /> <br />TO: Mayor Keis and Members of the City Council <br /> <br />FROM: Joel Hanson, City Administrator <br /> <br />DATE: March 23, 2018 <br /> <br />RE: Contract for Interim Building Official Services <br /> <br />Attached is a request proposed contract with Inspectron for Interim Building Official Services. This <br />contract is needed because our Building Official will be out on medical leave during the month of <br />April due to shoulder surgery resulting from a work injury this winter. To ensure we provided needed <br />services for outstanding building permits and from any new applications, we need a qualified Building <br />Official to assist us. <br /> <br />In the past, we have worked with the City of Shoreview to provide us temporary help during vacations <br />or other extended absences. However, that is not an option this year due to their level of activity. We <br />did talk with some other communities and contractors, and the Inspectron proposal was the best option. <br /> <br />Inspectron currently provides Building Official services for the following communities on an on-going <br />basis: Coates, City of – Dakota County <br /> <br />Empire Township - Dakota County <br /> <br />Lexington, City of – Anoka County <br /> <br />Marshan Township - Dakota County <br /> <br />Miseville, City of – Dakota County <br /> <br />New Trier, City of - Dakota County <br /> <br />Nininger Township - Dakota County <br /> Ravenna Township - Dakota County <br /> Richmond, City of – Stearns County <br /> Rockville, City of – Stearns County <br /> St. Joseph, City of - Stearns County <br /> Vermillion, City of - Dakota County <br /> <br />Here are the highlights of this agreement: <br />• Rate of compensation is $75 per hour. <br />• Service will be performed on an “as needed basis” based upon our determination. <br />• Insurance of $1million/$2 million is adequate. <br />• Mutual indemnification provision included. <br /> <br />Staff recommends the Council approve the agreement for Interim Building Official Services with <br />Inspectron as presented.
