City of West University Place*Texas
Memo
To: Building Standards Commission Members
From: Debbie Scarcella,Chief Building Official
Date: November 16,2005
Re: Staff Recommendation for Agenda Item No. 5-Forms, certifications,
inspection.
Staff has been working to implement the certification and inspection procedures to ensure compliance
with Ordinance 1791,which was approved by City Council in May 2005. Attached are proposed
inspection certification forms and an engineer's observation certification that contain the elements
required by Ordinance 1791. Staff recommends that the BSC approve these forms as to content to be
used in conjunction with all permit applications beginning December 5,2005. Any permit issued prior
to December 5,2005 would be subject to the procedures and required documentation,as it currently
exists. All applications submitted on or after December 5 and all applications currently on file,and not
yet approved to be issued,will be required to fully comply with Ordinance 1791.
Also under this agenda item is a proposed demolition application and demolition project guideline
sheet. Staff is asking the BSC to approve the application and guideline as to content and approve their
use beginning December 5,2005 for all newly submitted permit applications. The permit guidelines
will be copied to the back of each permit when issued.
