The Village Engineer also prepares construction plans, specifications, and contract documents for the construction of Village sewer, water, and roadway improvements,  as well as handles inquiries regarding stormwater drainage and floodplain management, location of Village-owned utilities, right-of-way and property surveys, subdivision review, mapping services, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and traffic studies.  Field technicians with the Village Engineer’s office provide coordination between residents, contractors, and Village staff during construction projects.
