As a consultant to the Town of Raynham between 1995 and 2025, Nitsch provided a range of consulting engineering services. For both residential and non-residential developments, we reviewed site plans; Notices of Intent; and roadway, utility, Title 5 compliance, and stormwater management systems to ensure that they complied with standard engineering practices, were constructible, and adhered to Town, State, and Federal regulations. We also reviewed traffic and transportation issues associated with new developments to help prevent undue impacts on the community.
In addition, Nitsch attended pre-construction meetings with the Planning Board’s agent, the Department of Public Works, and the Contractor. We provided technical support at public hearings/meetings and site walks, observed construction to ensure compliance with the required standards and permits, prepared construction cost estimates for performance bonds, and advised the Planning Board and Highway Superintendent of construction status and bond reductions. Nitsch reviewed As-Built plans, performed final construction site visits, and recommended whether a street was built correctly for acceptance as a public way.
Nitsch also provided general engineering and technical support to the Planning Board. Along with revising the Subdivision Rules and Regulations with the Planning Board, we also created a Construction Appendix to be used when building any new roads, as well as Site Plan Checklists and Subdivision Checklists.
