Council debates code-enforcement contract language; final revisions to be circulated
Summary
Council discussed amending the code-enforcement contract to clarify subcontractor language, extend procurement timeframe from 14 to 30 days, and set compensation and appearance fees; council tabled the contract pending draft revisions.
Council members reviewed draft revisions to the code-enforcement contract, including changing the meaning of 'subcontractor' to permit outside specialists rather than employees, extending the procurement timeframe from 14 to 30 days, using a monthly retainer plus additional fees for approved major cases, and a flat $100 fee for court appearances. Members also discussed insurance requirements and confirmed that inspections would be performed directly by the contractor.
The council tabled the item and directed staff to prepare revised draft language for circulation and review ahead of the next meeting; no contract was approved at this session.
