Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This ordinance provides $41,892.60 to prevent inspection deficits for projects within the Department of Public Utilities and Recreation and Parks Capital Improvement Program. Construction Inspection funding is normally authorized in construction legislation and available throughout the project.
The amount for inspection is generally estimated by taking a percentage of the construction cost and occasionally, the funds set up for this cost are not sufficient to cover the inspection of the project through completion. It is then necessary to request additional funding for the remaining inspection costs. This ordinance authorizes an additional amount of $41,892.60 to establish funding to prevent inspection deficits in various projects. Inspection Funding for the following projects makes up this $41,892.60.
