Public Works News and Information:

  • Road Closures: For updated road closure information, check out our new Road Closures Map.
  • Potholes: To report a pothole, request alley maintenance, or request a street sweeper, please use the 'Report a Concern' button below or call Operations at (712) 328-4641.
  • West Broadway: Construction is almost complete on the fifth and FINAL Segment of the West Broadway Reconstruction Project. Finishing touches will happen this spring. The Asphalt Paving Association of Iowa presented Public Works with the 2021 Perpetual Paving Award in recognition of this project. Learn more at wbreconstruction.com.
  • No Wipes in the Pipes: Please only flush toilet paper! Non-flushable items clog the sewer lines. Even if the package states 'flushable,' it can still clog the sewer lines. Unclogging pipes is costly and time-consuming. If it is not toilet paper, put it in the garbage!
