Public Works
The Public Works Department oversees
the preventative maintenance of safe and efficient roadways and
Right-of-Ways within city limits, the city's facilities
maintenance, animal control, and solid waste services.
During Summer 2001, the City is
planning to embark on a City-wide road improvement project
costing an estimated $846,000. Details of this proposed program
as well as schematics can be viewed at City Hall during business
hours.
Animal Control
Animal Control is governed largely by the City's Animal
Control Ordinance which prohibits animals from running at-large.
The City also has a "Dangerous Dog" ordinance which prohibits a
dog from attacking another animal or person. Any violations of
these ordinances may constitute a fine payable by the owner.
Should you require Animal Control Services during business
hours, contact City Hall at 494-3671. After hours, contact the
Police Dispatch at 335-6000.
For the removal of deceased animals, please contact Waste
Management at 648-6006.
Solid Waste Services
Waste Management handles all solid waste pickup for common
household and business waste in the municipality. Waste pickup
is scheduled for Wednesdays and Saturdays. Place all items at
the edge of the street by 8 a.m. the day of pickup.
Recycling of plastics, bottles, and newspaper is scheduled for
Wednesdays. Magazines can be recycled by placing them in the
dumpster located at the front of City Hall.
The City also provides brush pickup on the last Saturday of the
month. This pickup is for residential brush only. Commercial
operations that cut trees are responsible for removing and
disposing of brush on their own. Waste Management requests that
any brush placed out for removal be located in the Right-of-Way;
maximum limb length is six feet. Each residence is limited to
the size of one pickup truck bed in quantity.
For questions regarding service, call Waste Management at
648-6006 or call City Hall.
