The reorganization 53 has progressed well, and the proposed ordinance would codify the changes in operations and 54 reporting. These specific changes are recommended to the Zoning Ordinance to assign the 55 responsibility for administering the Zoning Ordinance to the City Planner, rather than the 56 Building Inspector. Currently and previously, the City Planner has been the appointed 57 Building Inspector as well. These changes would allow for another individual to be 58 appointed as the Building Inspector without affecting the administration of the Zoning 59 Ordinance. 60 Actions History 61 March 10, 2008 - Introduced in Legislative, Finance and Administration Committee
