Baltimore City Department of Public Works (DPW) wants to hear from you! DPW is asking visitors to the Department’s website to respond to a brief online survey designed to gather information about the website and identify opportunities for improvements.

“DPW is in the process of rebuilding our online presence and a critical part of this process is gathering feedback on how the current website is working,” said Director Jason Mitchell. “DPW’s website plays an important role in serving the residents of Baltimore City as well as the water customers that the Department serves throughout the region.”

Visitors to the DPW website will be asked to participate in a brief, 10-question survey. The random survey will pop up in the bottom right-hand corner of the DPW website and will appear on all pages of the website.

DPW will use survey responses to help establish objectives and goals as the Department works to redevelop the website into a more service-focused, user-friendly site.
