3. Why are we doing this? NPDES Permitting GASB 34 MNGWPD
EPD Audit Checklist
CMOM

Might want to expand on all these a little. Some the developers will be familiar with others they will not be.

4. Why Electronic As-Builts
The “Best” Way
More efficient than paper
Review process can be automated
Imports into GIS making data more timely

6. How did we develop the standard?

7. Modeled on CCWA Standard
Already is proven and accepted
Builds standardization in the Metro Area for development community to follow
Other communities are also looking at this model

8. Defining the Standard

9. Work with Development Community
Hold educational workshops for easy transition to new standard
Make standards available online
Have easy to use templates available
Incentives
1) Sharing of GIS data (aerials, contours, etc.)
2) Increase approval turn-around time

10. County Staff Hold training workshops for County staff
Have automated review system to reduce review errors and misunderstanding
Have an appeal process if submission fails

11. About the Templates
Created for basic & advanced CAD packages including AutoCAD, AutoCAD LT, TurboCAD, IntelliCAD and so on
Includes DWG, DWS, DWT, & DXF
Working on Microstation seed files & cell libraries

17. ANOTHER OPTION FOR WATER/SEWER
Annual Contract for Survey & Inventory
Deliver GIS Data
Include CCTV Data
Increase Impact Fee or Inspection Fee
Per Point Cost (Water, Wastewater)
Linear Foot Cost (CCTV Inspection)
QA/QC Cost
Option to do themselves
How do we quantify cost savings?
