The Colonie Village Department of Public Works serves as a vital arm of local government, providing essential services that ensure the safety, efficiency, and well-being of Colonie’s residents. Dedicated to maintaining and enhancing the village’s infrastructure, the department oversees a wide range of municipal operations, including street maintenance, water distribution, and sanitation services. One of its core responsibilities involves maintaining roads in all seasons—paving, plowing, and ensuring safe traffic flow.

The department also manages the village’s water system, ensuring public access to clean, safe drinking water while performing regular inspections and necessary repairs. Sewer and stormwater systems are monitored to prevent backups, manage drainage, and maintain environmental standards. In addition to maintenance duties, the department plays a key role in seasonal services such as leaf collection, snow removal, and brush pickup—keeping the village clean and navigable year-round.
