Decision question
After the City Council approves the Traditional Approach and refuses to mitigate the identified disproportionate flood diversion risk to the underserved community, how should Engineer K discharge the faithful agent obligation while honoring the paramount duty to protect public safety and the non-discrimination principle?
Focus
Engineer K's faithful agent obligation to the City and its limits when implementing the City-approved Traditional Approach that carries a known, unmitigated disproportionate flood risk to an underserved community
Option1
Formally document the unmitigated disproportionate flood risk in writing to the City, advise in writing that the approved design may not equitably protect all members of the public, and evaluate whether escalation to relevant public authorities or regulatory bodies is required given the magnitude and distributional inequity of the residual harm
Option2
Defer entirely to the City Council's approved decision and proceed with implementation of the Traditional Approach without further written documentation, advisement, or escalation, treating the prior verbal disclosure at the City Council meeting as a complete discharge of all post-approval professional obligations
Role
Engineer K Flood Control Design Engineer
