Following completion of the engineering analysis, the City is getting ready to begin sediment removal operations within Globe city limits.
As part of this next phase, some property owners (not all) will be contacted by City staff regarding Temporary Construction Easements (TCEs). Staff will begin calling and/or visiting affected property owners starting Friday, May 22.
A Temporary Construction Easement (TCE) is a temporary legal agreement that allows the City and its contractors limited access to specific portions of private property for flood recovery and creek restoration work.
These easements may be needed for:
• Sediment removal
• Creek restoration activities
• Equipment and construction access
• Temporary staging related to recovery operations
Important to know:
• TCEs are temporary
• Property ownership does not change
• Easements are limited in scope, location, and duration
• Full property rights remain with the owner once work is complete
We appreciate the community’s continued cooperation and support as this critical recovery work moves into the next phase, and we race to beat the upcoming monsoon season.

Globe's Public Works Department is responsible for maintaining 84.9 miles of waterline, 83.43 miles of streets, 2,628 signs, 54.69 miles of sewer pipe, 883 manholes, the cemetery, 10 baseball fields, and 12 parks across our community? Rain, shine, or in 100° heat. ☀️
It's not glamorous work, but it's essential. And we've got some of the best people doing it.
