1. How do I contact the municipal engineer?

Initial contact with [town-name] concerning most engineering issues such as drainage complaints, for example, should be made through the [city-type] Administrator’s Office. The [city-type] Administrator will take your report, open a file if necessary, and refer the matter to the municipal engineer. In many cases the [city-type] Administrator may be able to answer your questions or provide you information that is responsive to your inquiry without having to refer you to the municipal engineer. In order for the Finance Department to monitor engineering costs you should not contact Bay Pointe Engineering directly unless a file has been opened by the [city-type] Administrator and you have been advised to contact the municipal engineer directly.
