Engineering Infrastructure
In order to meet the needs of the City's current and future residents, the Engineering Department has an annual capital construction program, and a 10-Year Servicing Plan that identifies the infrastructure needs to service the City over the next 10-Years. These projects are funded through utility rates, general revenue, and development cost charges (DCCs). These projects are designed to meet the requirements of the Engineering Departments design publications.
For many of the Engineering Departments projects, project information is available online.
In addition to projects undertaken by the Engineering Department, local residents can petition the City for engineering infrastructure through the City's local area service (LAS) program.
In addition to the traditional engineering infrastructure that the Engineering Department normally provides such as sanitary sewer, drinking water, garbage & recycling, and drainage & environmental services, the Engineering Department is researching district energy.
