Public Works

Overview

The goal of the Public Works Department is to provide the community with the services needed by its residents, businesses, and industries. Much of the work accomplished by the individuals responsible for keeping everything working is “behind the scenes” and very often taken for granted. Safe roadways, a cemetery, and an adequate airport are all services that are not only nice to have, but are required for our City’s health, safety, and necessary to maintain our quality of life.
