(A)
While the Building Official is responsible for all operations, duties, and work assigned to or lawfully contained under his control, he has the right and authority to delegate the authority, duties and responsibilities assigned to him. Such delegation shall be to staff members of the Building Department or to other contract or alternate personnel within the confines of the various job descriptions adopted for the positions and certification requirements of the State of Ohio. The delegation should be well defined and clearly understood by the staff members and third party contractors as to the contents of the delegation and the limits thereto.
(B) Staff members must perform all work delegated to them, but shall not assume duties of authority not specifically assigned to them. Only the Alternate Building Official, whether staff or third party contractor, has the authority to act or speak for the Building Official in the absence of the latter.
