Counties, townships, and cities are independent governmental entities – yet interdependent upon one another for services such as water, sewer, storm drainage, and utilities. Township halls, police stations, and fire departments serve and are served by different levels of government. Knowledge of rules, regulations, and requirements is as important as technical skill. Helping the government operate more efficiently helps us all.

Does it matter whose bridge the water goes under?

It could, and our team is prepared to help navigate both the water and the process. Stormwater doesn’t recognize boundaries. Spalding DeDecker knows that overlaps in jurisdictions can raise issues, in some cases, higher than water levels. Our team approaches issues as partners, not purveyors, so all parties can work toward a successful outcome.
