Council committee to consider contract extension for QCI inspections on Rockside Road development
Summary
Committee discussed adding a contract extension for QCI to provide inspection services for the city’s road program and for utility work at the Rockside Road development, and voted to place the item on the next council agenda as an emergency.
The Finance, Civil Service and Personnel Committee heard a briefing on a proposed contract to extend inspection services by QCI for the city’s road program and for utility installation at the Rockside Road development.
Engineer Dan Gerson described the proposed contract as an extension of existing inspection services that would serve as a liaison to the city engineer and inspect utility work — including sewers and other underground infrastructure — associated with the Rockside project.
“We have an undeveloped piece of property where we’re gonna be running utilities,” a committee member said, and residents have asked who will inspect that work. Gerson said QCI would inspect utility installation and submit inspection reports to the city engineer for review so the city can be confident the work is installed according to approved plans before accepting roads or sewers.
Committee members noted that the building department will continue to inspect vertical construction (the buildings) under city code, and that this contract is intended to cover utility and right-of-way work. The committee chair moved to place the QCI contract on the next council agenda as an emergency; Morrow seconded. The transcript shows the roll-call included at least R a (yes) and Curioso (yes). The vote forwarded the contract to the full Seven Hills City Council for action; no contract award occurred at committee.
