Streets and Sidewalks
Streets 

The Operations Division, the Construction Division and the Public Service Administration are all responsible for keeping streets in good shape in Maumee. The Operations Division coordinates street sweeping, pothole repair, and snow and ice removal while the Construction Division performs the asphalt and concrete patching repairs to the streets made necessary by age, utility cuts and other factors. The Public Service Department is responsible for selecting streets needing major resurfacing or reconstructing and planning and coordinating that work.

Snow and ice removal are done by set priorities based upon the usage of the streets with the arterial streets first, followed by the collector streets, and then the residential streets. Also the school bus routes are taken into consideration in setting up snow removal routes. Work begins immediately as snow accumulates. Because the City has such excellent snow removal equipment, generally all Maumee streets are cleared within hours of when the snow quits.

If you know of a pothole that needs to be repaired, your street needs cleaning, there's patch work to be done or you think it's time for resurfacing, please call us at the numbers below or e-mail us at service@maumee.org

Sidewalk Repairs 

Sidewalk installation and repair in the City of Maumee is the responsibility of the property owner.

The Public Service Department inspects all sidewalks in the City for safety hazards on a four year cycle. Inspectors look for uneven heights, broken pieces, and sunken or raised sections.

Snow Removal 

All sidewalks must be cleared of snow and ice within 24 hours of a snow fall. Chapter 521.06(a) of the Maumee Municipal Code states "each single residential, commercial, or industrial property and owners of any multiple residential, commercial, or industrial property, or any unoccupied property...shall keep and maintain the same free and clear of snow, ice...debris.  Please do not shovel snow from your driveway into the street.  The plows will push it back into your drive approach. Remove the snow from your approach in the direction of travel. Cars parked in the street hinder the snow removal operation.
