Division Description This Division is responsible for supporting the planning for City Infrastructure in the areas of Water, Wastewater, Transportation/Traffic, Storm Drainage, Parks, and Recreation facilities. Additionally, the Division is responsible for providing engineering support to the operating divisions which maintain the City ’ s infrastructure. Traffic Congestion Management is still an activity of the Division, which includes the City ’ s share of funding paid to the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) Congestion Management Program (CMP). It is important to note that the Division provides the function for the work outlined, but no dedicated staff.

The approximate annual payment due to VTA as the City's share of regional congestion management services is also included in this budget. The City provides the required annual report and participation in regional transportation meetings.
