This review ensures consistency with engineering standards and the County's overall plans, as well as the County's floodplain regulations. We achieve this by:
- Performing comprehensive plan review for all new development and redevelopment
- Providing guidance in surface water drainage design, environmental, transportation, and land use development
- Updating, maintaining, interpreting and implementing the Adams County Development Manual and related plans, documents, and policies
- Conducting special studies and coordinating and communicating with other departments, governments and agencies undertaking planning and plan implementation
