Compliance status

Confidence
0.82
Importance
high
Obligated party
City (Municipal Infrastructure Client)
Obligation statement
The City was obligated to refrain from directing Firm DBA to produce a false or misleading public engagement report, and upon being informed of the report's deficiencies by Engineer M, to take corrective action rather than acquiescing in the continuation of the misrepresentation.
Temporal scope
Throughout the public engagement process and upon notification by Engineer M of the report's deficiencies
Source Evidence
Source text
A more unfavorable result would be anticipated if Firm DBA takes the position that it performed the work under the direction of the City and are, therefore, unwilling to make the corrections.

Text references
A more unfavorable result would be anticipated if Firm DBA takes the position that it performed the work under the direction of the City and are, therefore, unwilling to make the corrections.
After this meeting, if the City decided to do nothing, Engineer M must decide whether to report Firm DBA's actions to the state's engineering licensure board.
Should Firm DBA choose not to correct the discrepancies, Engineer M would need to also confer with the City (with the knowledge and potential presence of Firm DBA) and have a discussion of the ethical obligations of all involved.
