The Public Works Department of the City of Boulder City manages all aspects of the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for the City of Boulder City and provides development services for all private construction projects. We maintain top quality parks, streets, flood control facilities, buildings, water distribution system, sewer collection and treatment facilities. In addition, the Public Works Department is responsible for managing numerous other City items, including the municipal cemetery, refuge collection and disposal, and many of the City’s agreements with local business operations such as gravel pits and power plants. The Public Works Department professionally represents Boulder City at the Southern Nevada Water Authority meetings, Regional Transportation Commission meetings, and Flood Control District meetings.
Message from the Director:
BoulderCity is continuing our water conservation efforts.During the budget process this year, City staff identified several turf areas that are seldom used by our residents. Our top priorities were areas on steep slopes.These areas are problematic for several reasons.The steepness makes them difficult to mow.In addition, due to the quick runoff of water, steep areas often have to be overwatered simply to keep them from dying.Obviously, the steep slope areas are unattractive for people to use for recreation.
On August 12, 2008 City Council awarded a contract for the removal of turf at Hemenway Ballfields and VeteransMemorial Park.At both of these locations, the turf to be removed is on the sloped areas behind the ballfields.Total water savings from these projects are estimated at 5.7 million gallons per year.
