The City of Kingston Engineer’s Office is responsible for design and management of construction projects and capital improvements such as drainage structures, roads, sewers, sewage pumping stations and parks. The City Engineer generates plans and specifications which are disseminated for public bid, manages project construction and approves payment to the contractors. The office also interfaces with other local, state and federal governmental agencies and administers an Industrial Pretreatment Program as part of the Clean Water Act, which regulates non-residential discharges to the City sewer system. Engineering also responds to official inquiries and works in concert with other City departments to maintain the municipal infrastructure. Public services that are supplied by this office include the issuance of flood zone proximity letters, weather documentation, street maintenance certifications, as well as responding directly to residents complaints or inquiries. The Engineer’s Office also maintains an extensive historical informational archive of maps available for public use.
