Municipal Panel

The ICE Municipal Faculty is the body within the broader institutional and professional civil engineering community that will focus on:

• Public sector procurement - Working together for mutual understanding, co-operation and professional development across the public, private and political interfaces that define the culture and context of public sector procurement.
• Services that support quality of life - Developing a quality of life approach to municipal service provision, that ensures engineering outputs support community choice based outcomes that are in line with national standards.
• Public realm: cities, towns, villages and countryside - Communicating, consulting, influencing and informing, through partnership, national policies that affect the public realm.
