Engineer and his compensation fixed by the Board of Directors. Claims of the District Engineer for
compensation or expenses, approved by the Board of Directors shall be reimbursed out of the funds of
the District. In general terms, the role of the District Engineer is to ensure projects are bid, managed,
inspected, built, and closed out in a manner that facilitates reimbursement, and that the QCCFD is
reimbursing the Developer only those costs associated with the infrastructure that are legitimate and
eligible for reimbursement. In cases where the QCCFD elects to construct the infrastructure, the District
Engineer would aide Town staff in the delivery of eligible projects.
