Construction activity in the city is the result of many kinds of projects.
Most of these projects require review and approval by the city’s Building Division, Engineering Division, or Planning Division. City approvals are issued as permits, licenses, or planning decisions.
Private Development Projects
Private development projects are constructed with private funds and mostly occur on privately-owned land, but they can also include improvements in the public right-of-way.
Examples include a new or remodeled house, apartment complex, memory care facility, school, restaurant, or office building.

Public Development and Infrastructure Projects are also called Capital Improvement Projects or CIP projects.
CIP projects are a significant, long-term investment in a physical or technological asset. These kinds of projects differ from routine maintenance because they are very expensive, usually involve new construction or major improvements, have a useful life exceeding one year, and are planned and funded through a dedicated fund.

Public Development Projects**
Public development projects are constructed with public funds and mostly occur on publicly-owned land, but they can also include improvements in the public right-of-way. They are undertaken and funded by public agencies and jurisdictions such as the City of Tigard, Washington County, Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue, or TriMet.
Examples include a new or improved city park, county office building, fire station, public parking structure, or transit center.
Infrastructure Projects**
Infrastructure projects mostly occur within the public right-of-way, but they can also occur within easements on publicly- or privately-owned land. They are undertaken and funded by public or private service providers, such as the City of Tigard, Clean Water Services, Portland General Electric, or Northwest Natural.
Examples include a new or reconstructed water line, sidewalk, bridge, stormwater facility, power pole, or gas line.
