The Lanark Highlands Public Works Department maintains the roads, sidewalks, bridges, culverts, ditches, and storm sewers within the municipal right-of-way. They also maintain streetlights and are responsible for snowplowing and snow removal. In the village of Lanark, our operators clear snow on a priority basis, with high-volume routes receiving the highest priority. Outside of the village, our operators use tandem trucks with sanders and front/wing plows, maintaining distinct routes, clearing snow on a priority basis with arterial roads and school bus routes receiving the highest priority. If you are a homeowner or contractor looking to work within the municipal right of way, please contact Kathryn Maton, Manager of Public Works.
