In a statement by City of Terrace officials, new department was formed to tackle complex, large-scale capital works and long-term planning without stretching existing municipal staff too thin.
The key responsibilities for the new division include the following.
- Dedicated project oversight: direct management of major capital infrastructure builds and facility upgrades from planning to completion.
- Strategic planning & advocacy: streamlining inter-departmental workflows and managing strategic regional partnerships.
- Funding & efficiency: securing external grant opportunities and ensuring large-scale municipal investments remain on schedule and within budget.
City management notes that centralizing these larger initiatives under one specialized unit will improve accountability, speed up project timelines, and ensure local tax dollars are used effectively as terrace continues to grow.
