Servicing and stormwater submissions assessed as a municipal reviewer. From first submission through to approval.
Municipal engineering reports and drawings prepared for approval
Work with an engineer from initial scoping through design, municipal submission and comment response.
Functional Servicing Reports, Stormwater Management Reports, grading plans, and servicing plans.
Engineering reports and drawings for municipal approval
Municipalities require coordinated technical documents before they approve a project. Engineering review and sealing are provided where applicable.
The work covers private development, parks and open space, and municipal capital projects.
Stormwater Management Reports
Quantity control, quality control, water balance, and low impact development (LID) design. Prepared to applicable provincial, municipal, and conservation authority requirements.
Stormwater Management Report detailsFunctional Servicing Reports
A core technical document for site plan control, zoning amendments, and subdivision applications. Water, sanitary, and storm servicing addressed in full.
Functional Servicing Report detailsCapacity studies
Independent analysis of trunk water, sanitary, and storm capacity. Prepared for high-density and large-scale proposals where downstream systems are the constraint.
Capacity study detailsFeasibility studies
Servicing feasibility, connection options, and approval risk assessed before you commit to a site. Front-end due diligence for acquisition decisions.
Feasibility study detailsGrading plans
Grading and drainage design for development sites, parks, and capital projects. Overland flow routing coordinated with the stormwater strategy and municipal road grades.
Grading plan detailsServicing plans
Water, sanitary, and storm layout with connection points and invert elevations. Includes irrigation, splash pad, and field house servicing on park sites.
Servicing plan detailsPlan and profile drawings
Sewer and watermain installation drawings for road rights-of-way. Prepared to municipal design standards for construction-stage submissions.
Plan and profile detailsDevelopment application packages
A coordinated submission set for official plan amendments, zoning amendments, and site plan control. Report and drawings prepared together so the numbers agree.
Development package detailsMunicipal coordination
Comment responses, resubmissions, and coordination with municipal engineering staff. Comments are addressed by the engineering team responsible for the submission.
Municipal coordination detailsConservation authority permits
Permit applications and technical submissions for projects in regulated areas. Requirements are coordinated with the conservation authority responsible for the project location.
Conservation authority permit detailsFour steps from first call to municipal submission
Pre-application review
You get a clear list of which technical reports your application needs. Based on the municipality's requirements and your site conditions.
Scope and fee
You get a fixed-fee proposal with the technical scope defined. Site-specific constraints are flagged before the work starts.
Preparation and review
Engineering work is prepared and reviewed under the responsibility of licensed Ontario Professional Engineers, then sealed where applicable.
Comment response
The engineering team addresses reviewer comments and coordinates resubmissions. This is included in the fee, not billed as an extra.
Engineering informed by municipal review experience
Ten years of municipal development-review experience informs how submissions are scoped, coordinated and prepared. Common reviewer concerns are considered before the first submission.
Discuss your projectReview-side experience
Submissions are prepared with the questions, coordination issues, and technical details that commonly drive municipal comments in mind.
Engineer access throughout
Work with an engineer throughout the assignment, from initial scoping through submission and comment response.
Fixed-fee pricing
Scope is defined upfront and the fee is fixed. Comment responses are included, not invoiced separately.
Regional municipal knowledge
Each municipality has its own design criteria, submission requirements and review expectations. Project requirements are confirmed against the standards applicable to the site.
