Sewer
Sewer stoppages on private property are the responsibility of the property owner or property tenant. State law prohibits the City of Red Oak from expending public funding for repairs on private property. It is also an established policy of the city not to be in direct competition with private enterprise.
The City of Red Oak is responsible for maintaining the sewer mains located in public right-of-way and public utility easements. Property owners are responsible for the maintenance of all service lines which extend from the City mains to the residence or business.
