Overview
Originally designated as the City of Tiffin Service Department Garage, Tiffin’s Public Works Department was formed in 1953 when Mayor Charles Dedrick appointed Francis Staib as its first Superintendent.
Our team of construction and maintenance professionals are charged with caring for our existing sewers, streets, signs and signals, bridges, culverts, and public ways. The Public Works team maintains a small, competent staff with a fleet of equipment to complement the tasks at hand. We take pride in our City and our work, and we encourage residents to stop by our building or call for concerns or questions about our public infrastructure.
MISSION
The Tiffin Public Works Department is a safe, professional, and proficient organization, trained and equipped to proactively maintain the City’s infrastructure, improve living conditions for residents and visitors, and, as needed, respond to emergencies.
