Public Works Inspection

Management of the City of Turlock's Public Works Construction Inspection program falls under the Development Services Department, Engineering Division.

The public works construction inspectors are responsible for the inspection of all public improvements under construction by both the City and private developers. The inspectors strive to provide quality inspection services by ensuring that all construction is in accordance with approved plans and specifications and that they are in compliance with the City of Turlock's Construction Standards and applicable sections of the Municipal Code.

In an effort to render the greatest benefit to the citizens and visitors of Turlock, staff seek innovative ways to reduce and or avoid future maintenance costs, provide for public convenience and safety, and minimize public liability.

We currently have five (5) Public Works Inspectors on staff.
