The consultant on behalf of the developer submits 16 complete sets of engineering drawings and a CD with the engineering drawings in PDF format to Development Coordination.

The drawings are circulated to the various departments, EPCOR and external agencies for review as follows: 1 set to Planning & Development 6 sets to the Transportation Department 3 sets to Asset Management and Public Works Drainage Services 2 sets EPCOR Water 1 set each to EPCOR Distribution, Parks, ATCO and Telus

Comments are received by Development Coordination as well as the consultant for revisions to the engineering drawings. Negotiations on items to be included on the drawings are concluded. Revised sets of engineering drawings are resubmitted directly to each department or agency for a subsequent review
