Any Contractor requiring inspection services outside of the City’s normal business hours will be charged a flat rate of $90 per hour for inspection services. The minimum time for After-Hours inspection services is set at two hours. A non-refundable payment of $180 for each request is due at the time inspection services are requested.

Following the performance of inspection services, the contractor will be invoiced for the actual number of service hours provided, in 15-minute increments, at $90 per hour, minus the $180 fee previously paid. Contractors working two hours or less will not receive an invoice. Contractors working more than two hours will receive an invoice for the time worked exceeding the two hour minimum.

The After-Hours Inspection Fee is subject to an annual review and may be updated based on the results of the review. Contractors will be notified in writing of any updates and agree to pay the fee amount in place at the time the inspection services are requested.
