Mission
The Public Works Department strives to efficiently provide essential services to the community. They are often a first point of contact for citizens as they are called upon to take care of issues with streets, sidewalks, special events, and more. They take special pride in working as a team to complete the snow removal process as quickly as possible.
- City Park, is located at 130 City Park Road, and is the only park that is reservable. The upper shelter at City Park is a great place for family reunions, church functions, and gatherings of any type. The lower shelter, known as “The Bandstand Shelter” is a wonderful place to hold a wedding with Lake Agnes as the background. Either shelter is reservable for $20.00. Reservations for each year begin on January 1.
- City Park is also home of “Art In The Park” which is held the last weekend in July.
- During the winter months the pond at Noonan’s Park transforms into an ice skating rink complimented with a warming house.
- Fillmore-Dean Melton Park has a brand new shelter and restrooms, great for family gatherings. It houses a kid friendly play area, baseball field and a large open area!
Please call City Hall at 320-763-6678 if you would like to reserve a shelter at City Park.
