Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
On April 5, 2016, the Board of Supervisors approved agreement B-16-013 with 4Leaf, Inc.
Summary of Request:
In August 2015, the Chief Building Inspector retired from County service after 29 years. Since then, Planning and Building Services (PBS) has conducted three recruitments to fill the position and was unable to identify a replacement. As an interim measure, PBS contacted several private companies to provide interim building official services. 4Leaf, Inc., was the only company at the time that had a qualified person available. In January 2016, PBS entered into a contract with 4Leaf, Inc., to provide interim building official services. PBS has recently concluded a fourth recruitment for a Chief Building Official and has selected one of the candidates. During this last recruitment, a long term Building Inspector III has resigned to accept employment with another jurisdiction. Operationally amending the 4Leaf contract will allow for a transition between the contract Chief Building Official and the new Chief Building Official, and provide availability of on-call plan check services to ensure coverage for the department.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not approve the amendment and provide further direction to staff.
