The Public Works and Building Departments provide many of the basic services that affect the daily lives of everyone who lives and works in the City of Ripon. Things we take for granted -- safe drinking water, refuse collected, environmentally safe sewer treatment, and safe and clean streets are included in the responsibilities of the Public Works Department. The Department is also charged with protecting the longevity of all City facilities, streets, storm drainage system, water facilities, as well as all of the City's owned vehicles and buildings.
