A $1.35 million annual contract with De Groot, Inc. will fix breaks, leaks, and manholes across the city, prioritized from the yearly televising and cleaning data, plus some stormwater outfalls and inlets.

Green Bay's aging sewer laterals let groundwater flood the sewer system, risking backups and overloading the NEW Water treatment plant. The city will now pay to replace private laterals (about $108,850) on 2026 street reconstruction projects — free to homeowners who sign up voluntarily.
