1. Who do I call if I have drainage issues?

Call Lafayette Renew before you call a plumber. We have professionals on-call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and holidays. 

2. When do the street sweepers visit my neighborhood?

The street sweepers will be in your area the day following your normal trash day. Due to the size of the areas, it may take 3-4 weeks to complete your area. 

The Stormwater Department, a division of Lafayette Renew, is responsible for keeping the streets swept and clean of debris. Streets are swept by a predetermined route at least once every month. Unless there are unusual circumstances or debris in a street that pose a safety hazard, the sweeper operators do not deviate from the normal route on an individual request basis. Deviating from the normal route would cause delays in regular sweeping, and could contribute to streets being missed.
