Streets & Drains

Besides the City's Capital Improvement Program, Streets & Drains is the Public Works Department's largest program.

Employees assigned to this program clean streets, fill potholes, replace street signs, repair storm drainage channels, and remove snow and ice from City streets during the winter.

Each year, Public Works employees sweep over 3,000 curb miles of streets, clean out over 1,000 catch basins and storm sewers, fill nearly 1,500 pot holes, and perform many other tasks necessary to keep the City's infrastructure in top-shape.

If you observe a street, curb, or catch basin that needs attention, let us know by filling out a Public Works Service Request Form.

Buildings & Grounds

Employees assigned to this program maintain all City facilities, including the Municipal Offices, Pool Complex, and Prairie Village Community Center. They also are responsible for maintaining the City's 11 public parks, doing everything from mowing parks and traffic islands to planting flowers to repairing fountains.
