(a) An approved plan bearing the City Engineer's stamp of approval shall be maintained at the site, along with any required permit, during progress of the work.
(b) Inspection and notification procedures and the time allowed to correct deficiencies shall be established by the City Engineer.
(c) The inspector shall inspect the work covered by the plan and permit. At any stage of the construction, when conditions are not as stated or shown on the plan, the inspector may, with the approval of the City Engineer, order further work stopped until approval is obtained for a revised plan conforming to the existing conditions.
(d) If, at any stage of the work, the inspector determines that the conditions are such that further work, as authorized by the existing permit, is likely to imperil any person, property, public way, watercourse or drainage structure, the inspector may require, as a condition of allowing the work to proceed, that such reasonable safety precautions be taken as are considered available to avoid the likelihood of such peril. Where it appears that storm damage may result because the grading is not complete, the inspector may, with the approval of the City Engineer, order work to be stopped and require the developer to install temporary planting to control erosion, to install temporary structures or to take such other measures as may be required to protect adjoining property or the public safety.
(e) Where no permit has been required and it is evident that construction and grading have caused the existing surface drainage in the general area to be impaired, have created an erosion hazard or have become a source of sediment to any adjacent land or watercourse, the City Engineer shall:
(1) Have the developer verbally notified to take measures necessary to correct the situation within a specific period of time;
(2) Take immediate action, if necessary to protect persons or property from damage, by causing corrective measures to be taken and charging the developer for all costs incurred by the City as a result of such action;
(3) Have corrective measures performed by other than the developer, with the incurred expense charged to the developer, if not completed by the specified time period; or
(4) Recommend to the City Manager that the Building Department withhold the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for all structures on the project area until all costs incurred by the City have been paid in full by the developer.
