CSG PROPOSAL TO THE CITY OF MANTECA

FOR PLAN CHECK AND INSPECTION SERVICES
3 Proposal Summary
To the City of Manteca, our firm brings specialized expertise, knowledgeable and highly experienced staff, and proximity which facilitates communication and rapid response. As a proud partner working with many of the local communities and industry associations, CSG has successfully contributed to the fabric of community development services in the region. Since its founding in 1991, CSG has been providing building and fire life safety plan review, inspections, and staff augmentation services to public agencies. CSG currently delivers building and safety, public works, planning, fire prevention, code enforcement and other municipal services to over 250 clients including many neighboring communities. CSG performs work solely for public agencies, eliminating the potential for conflicts of interest. Our extensive experience in furnishing comprehensive building and fire life safety services to jurisdictions provides a consistent, strong technical foundation to all projects.

CSG has reviewed the information provided by the City and understands the complexity of the services to be provided. We are also familiar with and ready to respond to the current trends and potential issues that may arise such as the need for more housing, the complexities of providing shelters for the homeless, new construction for both residential and commercial projects, as well as infill projects. For on-site services, CSG will make every effort possible to provide interim staff upon availability.

Building Plan Review
CSG’s proposed team has been identified to best support the City of Manteca and will deliver the highest level of service through its application of technical expertise, knowledge of municipal processes and procedures, efficient and effective customer care, and application of code compliance combined with innovative solutions and helpful alternatives. All reviews shall be conducted using City of Manteca plan review policies and procedures and will be of the highest quality, completed in a professional manner. CSG understands and will meet the City of Manteca’s mandated time frames.

CSG’s commitment to digital plan review extends beyond what others can offer. All paper plans submitted to CSG are immediately scanned into digital files and stored on CSG’s servers for rapid access by both the City and our plan reviewers at no additional cost. Our plan review comments will utilize the City’s established document and transmittal formats and will include digital files with redlines and detail specific thumbnails.

CSG offers a convenient service allowing the City to check plan review status and comments online. If the City is interested in using our secure Plan Check Status website, agency staff as well as pre-authorized design professionals and applicants can view their project documents and plans and communicate with the specific plan checker via e-mail.

Building Inspection
CSG’s main function is to serve as an extension of the City. CSG will provide experienced, ICC certified (and/or with other appropriate entities in accordance with AB717) inspectors to perform all required inspections of proposed building and structures to determine conformance with the California Building, Plumbing, Mechanical, and Electrical Codes, and all applicable State, Federal, and local laws. Our inspectors ensure compliance with applicable codes and requirements by identifying code violations, offering solutions to developers, property owners and tenants on potential risks and safety hazards, and by working as a team to correct violations. Our CSG Building Inspectors will be available as needed upon availability. We can easily alter our hours to meet the City’s needs. Evenings and weekends for special events and meetings can be accommodated with 48 hours’ notice.

Additional Requested Services
CSG understands that the City seeks additional on-call building department staff including a Deputy Building Official, permit technicians and on-site plans examiners/engineers. CSG offers these services on an as-needed basis.

11 Third-Party Plan Review Services
Subject to the Building Official’s approval, CSG can offer comprehensive, cost-effective third-party plan review services to our public agency clients on projects for which applicants may be seeking plan review turnaround times that cannot be readily accommodated by building department staff. Under such third-party agreements, and the agency’s approval, CSG negotiates plan review fees and review schedules directly with the permit applicant, with CSG’s fees paid by the applicant.

PL AN CHECK TURNAROUND TIMES
CSG strives to provide the highest quality and most timely service in the industry. We take pride in maintaining the requested plan review times for all our clients—even delivering faster than our own deadlines. Our goal is to approve code-complying projects and to move work quickly and successfully through jurisdictional processes. CSG will ensure that all building and safety duties and follow-up actions will be performed in a timely and responsive manner.

The following are CSG’s proposed plan check turnaround times:

TYPE OF REVIEW INITIAL REVIEW
(BUSINESS DAYS)2

RE-CHECK
(BUSINESS DAYS)2
Commercial (new building or addition) 1 15 5
Tenant Infill, Remodel, etc. 8 3
Residential (new building or master plan) 10 5
Residential Addition, Remodel, Patio, etc. 8 3
Expedited 5 5
1Turnaround time may vary with the complexity and magnitude of the project. If a review is anticipated to take longer than the maximum turnaround timing, CSG will notify the City’s representative within (2) days of receipt and negotiate additional time required to ensure an appropriate level of review. 2The number of working days associated with the plan check turnaround time is based on time of project submittal.

The first working day will be the day the project is received by CSG if submitted by 12:00 PM. For a project that is received by CSG after 12:00 PM, the first working day will be the next business day.

Expedited Plan Check Services
At the City’s request, we can perform plan check services on an accelerated schedule based on the fees indicated in our fee schedule.

Cost Control
CSG’s plan review work is generally billed as a percentage of the agency’s plan review fees, which provides the agency with an upfront understanding of the expected plan review project cost and is a form of cost control. After the second review, CSG will work with an applicant in an effort to limit the number of review cycles, so as to avoid additional plan reviews that would be billed on an hourly basis.
