Public Works Department

The Public Works Department provides essential water, sewer, and sanitation services to the Town, while also working to maintain the integrity of our infrastructure and aesthetic natural appeal of our Town.

Road Maintenance

The Public Works Department maintains the Town’s 60 miles of roadways throughout the year. During the Spring and Summer months, our staff split their time between improvement projects, routine maintenance, and repairs. The Town also offers curbside brush/yard debris pickup service; please visit our Sanitation page for more information about special pickup services or to submit a request form. During the Winter months, the staff work tirelessly around the clock to keep the roadways as safe and navigable as possible for our residents and visitors. For road maintenance requests please submit a request form.
