In order to ensure the consistent high quality of materials and workmanship in all public construction projects, the City deems it in the public interest to establish and publish Standard Construction Specifications which shall apply to and govern the construction of all public improvements in public rights-of-way within the City.
The City adopts, by reference, the following minimum standards for public improvements constructed within the City’s jurisdictional area: The Iowa Statewide Urban Design and Specifications – current edition – (SUDAS) manuals shall be the adopted City Standard for Public Improvements. SUDAS shall be the minimum standards; due to unusual or extenuating circumstances, the City may require that projects conform to additional standards or to greater than minimum standards. A copy of the specifications shall remain on file at the office of the Clerk and shall be available for inspection and copying. All contractors and suppliers shall be charged with knowledge of its contents.
The City Engineer may, from time to time, propose additions or changes to the specifications in the form of amendments. All such amendments shall be presented to the Council for examination and approval. The Council may approve and adopt such amendments by resolution. Following adoption by resolution, the amendments shall be placed in the publication on file with the City Clerk and shall have the full force and effect of law as of the date the amendments are filed.
