The City's contract Building Permit Technician, Liza Tellez, has announced her resignation effective September 16, 2014, to accept a position with the City of Redwood City.  She has worked with Menlo Park over the past year and has been instrumental in helping to create efficiencies in the building permit review process.  The Building Division will be filling her position with one of the limited term positions approved by the City Council with the adoption of the 2014-15 budget.  In the short term, we will be looking for ways to adjust operations to cover the loss, however there may be impacts to the review of building permits during the time it will take to recruit and fill the position.
