Environmental Services

The City of Lee's Summit 
offers numerous services that aid our community and the environment.


The Solid Waste Division of the
Public Works Department is responsible for these services, including our
Resource Recovery Park where yard waste, mulch, and compost are processed; our drop-off Recycling Centers where glass, paper, aluminum, tin, cardboard, and plastic recycling is offered; and our Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Facility where unwanted HHW is collected and properly disposed.  The Public Works Department is also responsible for addressing stormwater issues in the City.

The Water Utilities Department ensures that our demands for safe drinking water are met and provides tips on how to conserve water. 


In addition to these services, the Environmental Coordinator is available to answer questions, give presentations, and organize environmental awareness events.  For more information, contact the Environmental Coordinator at 969-1804 or via email.
