Stormwater Basins/Ditching

Stormwater Basins-Ditching Provided by Public Works Street Maintenance

Stormwater Maintenance is part of the Street Maintenance Division of Public Works, and is responsible for the maintenance of the storm water drainage system along city-maintained streets.  This includes repairs to existing stormwater basins, curb inlets, culverts, and drainage pipes.  The crews perform ditching work in order to restore the water flow, as well as the installation or replacement of driveway pipes as needed.  Missing basin tops or grates, which may pose a safety hazard, are also addressed by this group.
