Emergency: Information for property owners affected by recent storms/flooding
Maintaining 6,000 miles of roadside vegetation (3,000 miles of roads x two sides) is another important Public Works Department responsibility. We maintain roadside vegetation to meet a number of public safety and environmental protection goals.
Mowing is used to maintain site lines so that vehicles on the road can see vehicles on cross streets and driveways, as well as animals, especially deer. Mowing also prevents trees from taking over, keeping roadsides more like open meadows than forests.
