Pacific council forwards SAFEbuilt contract and 2026 blanket purchase orders to March 9 meeting

The City of Pacific council on Feb. 23, 2026 agreed by consensus to send two administrative items to the March 9 regular meeting for further consideration: a proposed professional services agreement with SAFEbuilt Washington, LLC for building-permit plan review and inspections, and a set of 2026 blanket purchase orders with city vendors.

The professional services item, listed in the minutes as AB26-020 (Resolution 2026-1032), was introduced as an agreement to provide building permit plan review and building permit inspections but the workshop minutes do not include the contract term, dollar value, or a recorded motion, mover or second. The council’s minutes record only that the matter was forwarded “on Council consensus” to March 9 for continued consideration.

Also forwarded was AB26-021 (Resolution 2026-1033), described in the minutes as blanket purchase orders with city vendors for 2026. The minutes do not list vendor names, spending limits, or a vote tally; they show the item was advanced to the March 9 meeting by council consensus.

City staff listed in the workshop minutes include City Administrator George Martinez and Finance Director Beth Wright, who oversees procurement matters. The minutes do not show any substantive debate, amendments, or public comment on either item during the workshop.

The council’s forwarding of both items means they will appear on the March 9 agenda for possible formal action, public comment, and any recorded vote. The minutes do not record a timetable for contract execution or implementation dates for either item.
