The Engineering Department is the gatekeeper for the City’s infrastructure assets, providing guidance and support services to the community to safeguard the City’s transportation and utility infrastructure and the City’s natural resources. Both internal and external customers seek guidance, support and endorsement of projects related to the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and residential and commercial land development.
Engineering, funded by bond elections and other funding sources, allows for the design and construction of streets alleys, water, sewer, and other public improvements that are delivered safely, within budget, and on time. Development Engineering reviews private development plans by using sound engineering practices to ensure quality construction of public infrastructure.
