PUBLIC WORKS

The Village of Wellsville Public Works Department is the overseeing department for the Village utilities: Electric, Water and Sewer as well as the Streets and Solid Waste Divisions.  The Public Works Department Director is Bill Whitfield who can be reached at 585-593-1850.

The Public Works Department works on projects throughout the village that directly impact the residents.  On a day to day basis crews will be out plowing, sweeping and collecting garbage from the community.  The Electric Department is a Municipal Electric Utility, which is allocated power that is cheaper than most Commercial Utilities.  This is a great asset to the Village residents. The Water department provides very clean water that has been filtered from its collection point on the Genesee River.  The Waste Water Treatment plant is the largest in the county and processes liquid waste from the residents and neighboring landfills.  Campers and Septic System maintenance firms also utilize the facility.

FALL:

Leaf pickup has started as of October 14th. Leaves to be picked must be raked to the tree lawn between the sidewalk and the street. PLEASE DO NOT PUT LEAVES INTO THE STREET!!! Pickup will continue until either complete or until the snow makes it impossible to pickup but generally not later than Veteran's Day November 11th.

WINTER:

Street plowing and sanding will commence on an as needed basis anytime from now on. The Village does not have a bare road policy so there may be times when extra caution is needed by drivers. Be sure that cars are off the street as per normal winter regulations [see local laws].

Sidewalks are the responsiblity of the property owner and are expected to be cleared of snow and ice. Surplus snow will be removed from Main Street business district as time and funds allow. The sidewalks in the business district are the responsiblity of the building owner or their tenants as agreed upon by them.

The Village also works in conjunction with the Town on maintaining the Parks. 

All Residential/Business Customer Billing questions for the Utilities should contact the Billing Office 585-593-4950, NOT the Public Works office.
