After a landscape contractor has completed his or her work, he or she shall notify the City Engineer, who shall then reinspect the land and take a grade reading of the soil to guarantee that the grade of the soil has not been changed. The City Engineer shall further inspect the land to see that the contractor has not caused any flooding or drainage problem to the surrounding or adjacent land or area. If the City Engineer is not satisfied that the work was done properly, he or she shall immediately advise the contractor and the owner, in writing, as to why the work is not satisfactory and what must be done to correct the situation. A report of the proceedings shall also be sent to the Mayor’s office. In those cases where the contractor has caused flooding or drainage problems, the contractor shall have not more than 30 days to correct any defect. If the contractor fails to correct the situation within the stated time, then the city may proceed to make the correction using the bond posted under this subchapter to satisfy any expense involved in making the correction.
