Marshall City Administrator JD Kehrman (right) introduces Mark Manville of IBTS at the beginning of a work session Jan. 29, 2026, focused on the city’s building and code inspection process through IBTS. After the session, Manville reflected on the eight months since IBTS was contracted to handle Marshall’s building and code inspections. Manville reminds contractors that beginning each Tuesday in February, IBTS will begin hosting office hours at the Marshall City Office. However, just as many questions were directed toward the city council, mayor Craig Thompson and administrator JD Kehrman about code enforcement. At least two contractors highlighted issues with unpermitted work going on, while another resident noted the lack of inspections performed on residential roof projects.
