About the Engineering Department

The Engineering Department plans, designs, and oversees construction of the City’s capital improvement projects (CIP's), which includes streets, storm water systems, sanitary sewer systems, water systems, and park facilities. The Department is also responsible for review and approval of all private development projects that include installation of public infrastructure as part of the development. The Department conducts inspections of the construction of public infrastructure projects to ensure that these facilities meet the City's standards for materials and installation. The Department issues right-of-way permits for all work performed within the public right-of-way, and oversees erosion and sediment runoff control on any construction activity within the City.
