Yavapai County Road Maintenance operates out of two facilities, Western and Eastern Divisions and employs approximately 60 people dedicated to prompt and courteous service.

Activities performed are:

  • Pavement Maintenance: Chip Seal, Overlay, Reconstruction, and Paving
  • Patching
  • Potholing
  • Crack Seal
  • Grading dirt roads
  • Snowplowing
  • Cleaning roadside ditches and culverts
  • Brush cutting and weed mowing

Maintenance is allowed only on County Maintained Roads and is governed by AZ State Statue. Only roads classified as County Maintained Roads are eligible for maintenance as the use of HURF funds is governed by State Statute §28-6705.

To find out if a road has been approved for and is receiving County maintenance please contact the Public Works Department. See also: GIS Mapping Applications

How do I get my road classified as a county maintained road?

Public roadways of Yavapai County may be added to the official road inventory if established, engineered, and constructed to current county roadway design standards, recommended for approval by the Public Works Director and approved for maintenance by the Board of Supervisors.

For a road to be considered by the Board of Supervisors for adoption and maintenance the cost of the improvement is the sole responsibility of the developer or property owners for that area. Funding can be accomplished voluntarily within a community or the formation of an improvement district (resulting in an assessment) may be the most appropriate method to use for road improvement.
