The Developer is encouraged to obtain the latest version of these specifications from the Public Works Department.

Public facilities not owned or maintained by the City of Central Point include: Power (PP&L}, Gas (Avista), Communications (Qwest}, and Sanitary Sewer (RVSS). In working together it is the Department's expectation that the developer will feel free to call on the Department whenever the standard specifications are not, in the developer's opinion, adequately meeting the needs of the development. The Department will listen to the developer's concerns and work with the developer to achieve the best outcome. However, the Department is eat obligated to assure a profitable development and will not sacrifice quality for the sole purpose of reducing cost to the developer. It is always the developer's obligation to provide the public improvements necessary, as determined by the Public Works Department, to serve the development. The Department and the developer also have an obligation to assure that public facilities are constructed so that other properties are not adversely impacted by the development.
