The Engineering Department annually develops a ten-year capital infrastructure program as part of the Township’s budget setting process. Council reviews this budget during the budget process. The Engineering Department’s ten-year capital budget identifies the Township’s infrastructure projects as it pertains to roads, transit, sidewalks streetlights, waste management, sewage collection, drainage, water distribution and, finally sewage and water treatment plants. Factors considered in setting the annual program include public health and safety, levels of service, environmental protection and potential economic benefit to the Municipality.
The Department monitors sources of external funding, such as senior levels of government and private developers and, if appropriate, applications or agreements for funding are made. Funding availability, unless there are public health and safety issues, determines the timeline in scheduling and the completion of infrastructure projects.
