The streets division concentrates on maintaining and repairing infrastructure improvements. Typical duties include street and sidewalk repairs (including street sign replacement, pothole repairs, retrieval of deceased animals from public rights-of-way, and street striping), grounds maintenance, snow and ice removal, brush and leaf pick-up, storm sewer and sanitary sewer main repairs, tree trimming, and mosquito control.
Periodically older trucks are decommissioned and replaced with newer models. Older vehicles are used as a trade-in or sold in various ways, including auction sites such as Gov Deals. Vehicles for sale on that website can be viewed by entering "Montgomery, IL" in the search box.
