Packet: Tiffin Regular City Council Meeting (09/01/2026)

AGENDA ITEM # K-3 AGENDA INFORMATION TIFFIN CITY COUNCIL COMMUNICATION DATE: August 27, 2026 AGENDA ITEM: Discussion and Consideration to Approve a Professional Service Agreement with the Iowa DOT for the Highway 6 Improvements Project ACTION: Motion Background The City has prepared a draft Contract Service Agreement with Goerdt Inspections and Consultation Services, LLC for building and code-related services. The agreement is intended to provide the City with inspection and consultation resources for permit and plan review, building and property maintenance inspections, code and ordinance violations, and communication with contractors and residents. The proposed agreement identifies Terry Goerdt as the owner of Goerdt Inspections and Consultation Services, LLC. The agreement is structured as an hourly professional services arrangement, allowing the City to utilize services as needed rather than establishing a fixed annual contract amount. Under the proposed agreement, Goerdt Inspections and Consultation Services, LLC would be compensated at an hourly rate of $50.00 per hour. Payment would be made monthly following receipt of itemized invoices. The agreement establishes a minimum charge of two hours for each inspection visit. No fixed annual expenditure is identified in the agreement; total costs would therefore depend upon the amount of services requested by the City. Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the Contract Service Agreement with Goerdt Inspections and Consultation Services, LLC to provide building inspection, plan review, code enforcement, and related consultation services to the City of Tiffin.
