You can request an application for absentee ballot in person at the City Clerk's Office, Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM. This can be done up until 5:00 PM on the day before the election.
- Where do I apply for a dog license?
Dog licenses are handled by the Finance Department. Forms are available at City Hall.
- When do you declare a snow emergency?
A snow emergency is declared by the city immediately following a significant snowfall. Plowing starts on the snow emergency routes first and then goes to side streets. There is no parking on City streets at any time of the year. This is especially important during snow emergencies. The Police Department can have your vehicle towed if it is in the way.
- How do my garbage and recycled goods get picked up?
Mequon residents are required to contract privately with a licensed hauler for refuse and recycle pickup. The licensed haulers are:
- Veolia Waste Services:(800) 232-0860
- Ozaukee Disposal:(262) 377-4640
- Waste Management:(262) 251-4000
- Does the City pick up brush and tree limbs from my home?
As of January 1, 2004 the City of Mequon will no longer provide roadside brush pickup due to budget considerations. Please check your local yellow pages for a list of providers under "Landscape Services" or "Tree Services". The City cannot recommend a provider.
- What must I do with grass clippings, leaves and similar yard waste?
The State does not allow these items in landfills, so therefore your refuse hauler cannot take them. You may either have a private landscape contractor handle your needs or take yard waste to the City recycling site on Bonniwell Road (between Green Bay Road and Cedarburg Road) yourself. A $20.00 annual permit is required. The site is open Wednesdays, 7:30 am to 7:00pm April thru August, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. September thru November, and Saturdays, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The permit and rules are available at the Finance Department at City Hall.
- Can I or my neighbor cut down trees on my or their property?
An inspection for specimen trees by the City forester is required before a tree can be cut down. The City of Mequon has a Tree Preservation Ordinance, which is strictly enforced.
