Who installs culverts for a homeowner if they request it?

The homeowner contacts the Engineering department to request a driveway permit.  After receiving the required permit, the homeowner then contacts a contractor for installation according to the permit requirements.

What if I do not want the city to mow my right of way?

At the resident’s request, they will be allowed to maintain the right of way instead of the City.  Telling the person on the mower is not sufficient for this request; you must call in to the office to be placed on the official “No Mow” list.
