Prairie Village Citizen's "Bill of Rights" for Public Improvement
Projects
Learn what your rights are when public improvement work is done on your
street.
1. You have the same rights and privileges as your neighbors.
All residents will be treated equally. No preferential treatment will
be given to any resident for any reason.
2. You have the right to have the work performed on your street in
a timely, professional manner.
3. You have the right to have your concerns addressed promptly. The
City will address your concerns within 48 hours from the time you contact
one of the project representatives. If a problem cannot be immediately
taken care of, then the course of action to address your concern will
be formulated within that time.
4. You have the right to live your life in a reasonably normal fashion
during construction. The workers are professional, skilled craftspeople
who perform their job in a difficult environment. They understand the
inconveniences caused by construction and will try to minimize them.
Any worker who does not act in a professional manner will be barred
from the site by the City.
5. You have the right to have notice prior to work commencing on your
street, having your drive apron removed, and to when new sod in front
of your house will become your responsibility. The first notice will
be sent out two weeks prior to the work commencing.
