Engineering and Development is a Division of the Water and Sanitation Department which oversees all engineering, planning, development, design, construction, and inspection of public water and sewer improvements within our service areas.
Responsibilities include managing a program series of Capital Improvement Projects, Operations and Maintenance Projects, developing engineering studies and reports, and performing Asset Management for existing facilities. An example of some of the projects we manage is listed down below.
We also manage and provide permit issuance for Development Projects both small and large. Projects range from a new water and sewer service for a single family residence to water and sewer improvements for tracts, mixed-use, commercial, and industrial projects. Examples of our typical Development services include providing Will Serve letters, responding to utility research requests, and performing Fire Flow Verification tests upon request.
