Engineering

The Engineering Division is committed to providing safe and durable infrastructure to our community through efficient and resourceful engineering services. City Engineering is responsible for:

Inspections

Our department conducts inspections of all construction projects within the City. Projects include new private development, redevelopment and City funded capital improvement projects. The inspectors also provide the initial contact and response to citizen requests and inquiries relating to flooding, erosion, and infrastructure evaluation.

Engineering Review

Submittals to the City for development are required to comply with City criteria and standards. Submittals include building permits, drainage reports, geohazard reports, construction plans, grading/erosion control plans, and street and storm sewer plans and profiles.

Stormwater Management

City Engineering manages the City's Municipal Stormwater Discharge Permit Program. The stormwater permit addresses stormwater quality with an emphasis on controlling and limiting pollutants to the City's drainage system through Best Management Practices (BMPs).

Design and Construction

Engineering is responsible for those projects designed and managed with in-house staff. Work includes drainage analysis, project design, preparation of construction drawings and contract documents, project inspection, and construction contract administration. Typical projects include roadway and drainage improvement projects, infrastructure maintenance projects, sidewalks and pedestrian ramps, and drainage investigations.
