Daily News | A third of Philly’s building inspectors have quit since 2019. Critics say that threatens public safety.
Anthony Bronico joined the city Department of Licenses & Inspections in 2014, the year after a botched demolition job triggeredSix people died that day and 13 were injured. A week later, an L&I inspector assigned to the site took his own life.
L&I has lost nearly a third of its inspector force between mid-2019 and the start of this year — about 50 men and women in all. And, while many employers lost staff during the pandemic, inspectors left at a rate three times higher than the department as a whole. Peter F. Vaira, the former U.S. Attorney who led the commission that investigated the Market Street collapse, said he is frustrated that the problem hasn’t been fixed, and is again headed in the wrong direction.
Attrition is a challenge even in good times, he added, with most inspectors holding down jobs for “5-to-7 years” at most, as many were former construction workers taking up regulatory work as a second career on the way to retirement.
