Public Works

The Public Works Department is responsible for the construction, maintenance, and repair of the City’s infrastructure systems, including storm, water, streets, sidewalks, and signage. Construction and repair responsibilities are scheduled at specific times throughout the year, while maintenance responsibilities are generally conducted on an ongoing basis. The Public Works Department is also responsible for snow removal services during the winter months and for clearing post-storm debris from public right-of-ways year-around. During the summer months, Glendale hires seasonal employees to help the regular crew do various street, curb and sidewalk construction and repairs.

For Fleet Maintenance, the Public Works Department employs a mechanic who is responsible for the preventive maintenance of all city owned vehicles and equipment, with the exception of the fire truck, which is maintained by a manufacturer certified maintenance firm.

The Public Works crews are often working on job sites throughout the City and not necessarily readily available at their office. If you are in need of a service normally provided by the Public Works Department, please contact City Hall at (314) 965-3600 and a member of staff will forward your request immediately.
