Public Works Supervisor Jim Miller
Water/Sewer
We are responsible for the installation, operation and maintenance of the water and sewer mains and lift stations which transport all raw sewage from town to the lagoon. Reading meters monthly for utility billing and re-reading meters if needed.
Streets
We help maintain the streets by patching, sweeping, marking crosswalks and parking areas, snow and ice control, replace street signs as needed, and maintain the brush dump. We mow around the park, trails, and lakes.
Utility Line Marks
The State of Kansas requires, by law, that all utility lines be marked before any digging takes place by calling Kansas One-Call at: 1-800-344-7233. The City of Sedan marks water and sewer mains when they receive notification by Kansas One-Call. Any water lines that runs between the meter and the residence or business is considered a private line and will not be marked by the city.
Water Leaks/Backed up Sewer
If there is a water leak or sewer backing up, call 620-725-3193. This number is to be used during and after business hours. Once the customer makes contact a public works will come out and check on your lines.
If a customer has a leak on their private line, call public works at 620-725-3193 to report it so arrangements can be made to turn water off at the meter.
