A. The inspections of plans, materials, designs and workmanship provided by this section are intended for the protection of the City and the public. In performing these inspections, the city engineer is entitled to rely on more specific and detailed inspection reports submitted by others and is not required to inspect each particular aspect of a project in detail. The applicant is responsible for the quality of construction and shall not be relieved of this due to passing inspections provided by the City. The holder of any permit issued under this ordinance shall notify the city engineer as follows:

1. Initial Inspection. Forty-eight hours before work is commenced;

2. Utilities. Upon completion of utility installation, but prior to covering the work;

3. Subgrade Rock. When subgrade rock has been installed prior to paving or pouring concrete (when paving or pouring of concrete is to take place);

4. Grading. When all rough grading has been completed and again when finish grading is to occur, that is, when all work including installation of drainage structures and other protective devices has been completed;

5. Final Inspection. Upon completion of all work for final inspection.

B. On receiving the notice the city engineer shall promptly inspect the work and shall either approve it or notify the permittee in what respects there has been failure to comply with the requirements of this ordinance. Any portion of the work that does not comply shall be promptly corrected by the permittee. [BC 9.05.105, amended by Ordinance No. 3487, 1/14/86; amended by Ordinance No. 4249, 4/7/03]
