Decision Question
Should Firm A accept simultaneous roles as city-retained engineer and private consultant to developers whose work it inspects, or decline the private developer engagements to preserve its fidelity to the city as principal client?
Focus
Firm A BER 82-4 Dual-Role: Whether to Accept or Decline Simultaneous City Engineer and Private Developer Inspection Roles Within the Same Jurisdiction
Option1
Refuse to accept any private developer clients within the city whose projects are subject to Firm A's city inspection authority, maintaining exclusive fidelity to the city as principal client and eliminating the structural divided loyalty at its source.
Option2
Accept private developer engagements while proactively disclosing each instance of dual engagement to the city and obtaining formal city consent, relying on the BER 74-2 framework that permits dual municipal and private roles in small municipalities where public interest is served by consolidated engineering services.
Option3
Accept private developer engagements but implement a formal recusal protocol modeled on BER 75-7, whereby Firm A abstains from city inspection of any project for which it also serves as the developer's private engineer, delegating those inspections to an independent engineer to preserve objectivity on conflicted projects.
Role Label
Engineer A BER 82-4 Multi-Jurisdiction Dual-Role Municipal Engineer
