Frequently Asked Questions

If you have any questions, comments or concerns regarding public property maintenance, drainage, sidewalks and streets, or any other public works related item, you can create a service request online or call the Public Works Division at 305-466-8931.

Public Works manages and maintains all public property including public streets, facilities, right-of-ways and medians within the City limits. The Public Works Division issues permits for any work within the public right-of-way in the City, and is responsible for fleet maintenance. In keeping with the City's philosophy of operating the government as a private business, all of the public services are contracted to the private sector. This approach to delivering public service targets the public dollar to direct services, rather than related costs such as equipment, personnel, commodities and supplies.
