Background:
The City has been utilizing JAS Pacific in the Building and Safety Housing division since October 2021 for inspection and plan check services. JAS Pacific now also provides inspection services to Public Safety’s Code Enforcement division. Because of their expertise in these areas, as well as their familiarity with several key projects currently underway in the Community Development and Public Safety Departments, staff proposes to approve this amendment for these services.
