City of Bayfield - Public Works Director
Thomas Kovachevich
citypublicworks@cityofbayfield.com 


​The Department of Public Works is responsible for the design, inspection, and administration of public works infrastructure improvements within the City. The Department of Public Works is full service and can handle most engineering activities in-house.

Important functions of the Department of Public Works are traffic safety and environmental issues. Intersections, road capacities, and road conditions are reviewed continually and improvements are recommended if problems are revealed. Since the City of Bayfield is situated on the shore of Lake Superior, environmental issues, enforcement of erosion control standards, landfill closures, site remediation, and the preservation of wetlands and flood plains are becoming more complex and require a high degree of diligence in their oversight.

Please contact Tom Kovachevich for further information or questions concerning the Department of Public Works.
