MISSION

The Development Services Division of the Public Works Department provides expertise and assistance to all city departments in implementing the city's Capital Improvement Plan and annual special projects as directed by the Mayor and Council. The Development Services Division ensures cost savings and high-quality work from competitively bid and internally designed projects by providing in-house project engineering, monitoring, drafting, and mapping.
