Scope of Work The City of Port St. Lucie offers several housing programs involving repair, rehabilitation and/or redevelopment of single-family housing that is or will be occupied by qualified low to middle income households. These programs either provide current homeowners with funding for repairs or allows the City to develop vacant

properties so that they can be sold to income qualified homebuyers.
Repair/rehabilitation is usually defined as “repairs or improvements that are needed for safe or sanitary habitation, correction of substantial code violations, or the creation of additional necessary living space.” In the case of City owned property, it may also involve improvements made to create additional units of affordable housing on vacant City lots.
For repair/rehab of homes occupied by current homeowners, housing staff will contact the Inspector when a home needs to be inspected. From that inspection it will be determined which repairs will be eligible. The Inspector will follow through with the homeowners/homebuyers and coordinate repairs and additional inspections as listed below. Each repair and/or inspection will require some coordination with housing staff, clients and contractors.
The Inspector may be asked to inspect or consult as well. Once an Inspector has been selected, the Inspector works with the contractor to select colors for new home construction and materials for the home. Inspections that involve permitting are done by the Building Department; all other inspections are the responsibility of the Inspector. When repair/rehabilitation is required, the Inspector is responsible for the information, determining what additional work, if any, should be done and working with the contractor to ensure completion.
During the term of this contract with the City, the Inspector shall not directly or indirectly quote, perform, or subcontract the architectural services, inspection services, engineering services and/or actual construction, repair/rehab, in whole or part, on any City housing project covered by the terms of this agreement.
