Decision question
Should the engineer apply heightened independent scrutiny when approving plans the engineer personally prepared, or treat self-review as equivalent to reviewing work produced by another party?
Focus
The part-time city engineer both prepares and approves plans and specifications for city projects, creating a self-review situation. The core question is whether the engineer can fulfill the safety plan approval obligation with adequate objectivity when reviewing work the engineer personally designed.
Option1
Consciously adopt a more rigorous and detached review posture when approving personally prepared plans, explicitly checking each element as if it were submitted by an outside party and documenting the basis for approval.
Option2
Apply the same technical review protocol used for any plan submission, relying on professional competence and experience to catch errors without distinguishing between self-prepared and externally prepared documents.
Option3
For plans involving significant public safety implications, request informal peer review from a qualified colleague before issuing formal approval, while retaining final approval authority as city engineer.
