Engineering and Public Works staff are responsible for assessing the demands on the District’s infrastructure and are responsible for the design and implementation of the capital construction program that provides replacement and improvements to the District’s infrastructure.
New sanitary sewer and storm water management infrastructure is designed and approved in conformance with the requirements of Subdivision and Development Control Bylaw No. 430, 2003.
While the Engineering Department plans, designs, and oversees construction of new sanitary sewer and storm water systems, it is the Public Works department that ensures these services are maintained at high standards.
The many services that the Public Works Department provides include:
“Even if you cannot see that it is working you can trust that it is working”
While District staff does its best to maintain systems in peak condition, problems do sometimes arise. Call the Public Works Department for help with the following:
- Sewer discharge
- Bad odours
- Basement flooding
- Blocked/overflowing culverts
- Locating sewer connection
- Sewer connection information
