Introduction

Phase II begins the engineering design and plan preparation process for a project. The date for beginning this process will depend upon the approved project schedule, budget and time anticipated to complete the various phases/tasks.

The project team will play an important decision-making role in managing a project. This team will consist of City staff and private consultants (if applicable).

Intra-department, public involvement, and utility company meetings are commenced during this phase.

Field check plans are prepared, distributed and reviewed along with preliminary construction cost estimates. Also, R/W and easement documents are completed and, if required, appraisers are hired.
