Development Engineering

The Development Engineering Department ensures new projects meet municipal servicing standards and align with broader Engineering Services Plans, and oversee developments until all engineering requirements are fulfilled.

What is infrastructure?

Infrastructure includes sanitary and storm sewers, water mains, roads, curbs, sidewalks, street trees, lighting, and facilities like stormwater ponds, lift stations, and PRV stations.
