To date, 2012 has been good for our engineering and surveying firm. We've been able to retain our wonderful employees due to our mix of project types scattered throughout the Treasure Valley and a few in North Dakota as well. Our clients have been anxious to proceed, taking things in stride, all the while keeping mindful about what the elections in November will bring or not bring.

Would you hire an un-insured doctor or other professional? What about an engineer or surveyor? Did you know that engineers and surveyors are not required by law to carry errors and omissions insurance for private projects? Before engaging a surveyor or engineer, ask if they have E & O insurance. You should also ask if they have general business and automotive coverage. Sure it adds to their overhead, but if the firm is properly organized, like Mason & Stanfield, this is mitigated by keeping overhead low in other areas.

That is a good question. We certainly have been busy since the first of the year. Engineering and surveying projects include a large, upscale multi-family complex in Meridian; a charter school in Caldwell; a multi-family complex in Boise; a large church in Nampa; an 11 acre multi-use site in Nampa; a few commercial pad sites in Meridian; and a few others as well. We have also been busy working with one of our public clients (city of Fruitland) creating a new, user friendly commercial-industrial ordinance. Not to mention a few projects for another city in the val

3rd quarter SF building permits look better than last year for many cities. Positive gains are seen in Boise, Eagle, Fruitland, Middleton, Nampa and other cities. Others such as Caldwell, Meridian and Star are lower than in 2009. This data was supplied by the Idaho Economic Indicator and the Idaho Business Review.
Mason & Stanfield can prepare site plans, erosion control plans, and grading plans for your building permit application.
