The traffic maintenance team of the Public Works department is responsible for the designing of special signs as well as the replacement of signs when necessary due to deterioration, vandalism, damage and theft. We also paint center lines, lane arrows, stop bars, cross walks and all parking spaces on the street and in city lots.
The electrical crew is responsible for all traffic signals and a few city street lights; the bulk of the street lights are owned and maintained by Alliant Energy. The Public Works department handles all the electrical needs for city facilities such as City Hall, the Golf Course, Water Pollution Control, the Cemetery, and so forth.
Because of the crucial safety factor in repairing traffic signals and the restoration of stop and yield signs, we respond immediately to these needs.
