Parks Department
Under Public Works, the Parks Department maintains all City parks for the safety and enjoyment of residents and visitors. The Utilities Department is responsible for the operation and maintenance of the water system and sanitary sewer system, including water quality monitoring, main flushing and repair, hydrant and valve servicing, as well as maintenance of sewer lines and sanitary lift stations, and operation of the sewage treatment plant.
Projects
Numerous capital projects are undertaken each year, sometimes in conjunction with local service clubs, which enhance Nelson’s public spaces.
