Engineering, Sewer, and GIS Department

Description
The Engineering Department includes the Sewer and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) divisions.

The Engineering Department provides design and technical advice to other Town Departments, Boards, and Commissions, as well as the public. The Department is responsible for preparing engineering designs and specifications for the construction of municipal public works improvements. Construction plans for roadways, drainage, and sanitary sewer systems constructed by private developers are reviewed to ensure compliance with Town standards. The Department also provides inspection of these projects during construction. In addition, the Department is responsible for processing Excavation, Driveway, and Sewer connection permits and related inspections and manages review and sign-off of encroachment concerns within the Town-owned right of way.

The Sewer division is responsible for operations and maintenance of the sanitary collection system which includes over 100 miles of piping, 4 pump stations, and 3 flow meters. This includes the maintenance of inter-town agreements for waste treatment, sewer-use billing, special contracts for equipment and support, easement maintenance, and routine inspections.

The GIS division is responsible for development and maintenance of the Town-wide mapping system. This includes data maintenance and acquisition, special mapping projects for Town events, integration of external mapping data, accident reconstruction assistance, maintenance of Assessors mapping, and general map development and support for Town staff, residents, and businesses. The GIS division also manages and maintains two web-based GIS sites for the town as well as maintaining critical sanitary sewer data such as new connections, infrastructure updates, and record map accessibility.
