Operations change seasonally. Each season brings different responsibilities to the Department:

  • Spring is the season for cleaning the last vestiges of winter. This material is removed through sweeping and flushing operations.
  • Summer is the time when construction activities require repairs to roadways, sidewalks, curbs, sewers and ditches. Work includes lawn restoration, pavement patching, permanent repairs, and culvert replacement. In addition, preventative maintenance through catch basin cleaning, sewer flushing, and ditching is implemented to prevent long-term problems.
  • Fall construction work involves outstanding summer projects, concrete work, and less weather critical tasks.
  • Winter brings operations in road and sidewalk snow plowing, snow removal, sanding. Pothole patching is ongoing during the winter season.
