The public works department is responsible for maintaining and improving all city streets, alleys, and community property.

The City shop is located at 901 NE Main ST.

Mid American Energy owns most of the street lights in Grimes. A streetlight that is on during the day or repeatedly cycles on and off needs attention just the same as a light that is completely out. To report a streetlight problem online please use this link to Mid American Energy's streetlight repair request form.  ( This will open in a new window )
