Your City Government
About City of Riverbend (Demo)
Serving Our Residents Since 1887
The City of Riverbend is home to just over 38,000 residents along the banks of the Cedar River. This site is your front door to city hall — a single place to handle permits, utilities, and service requests, stay on top of council decisions, and get help when you need it.
We built it so you can take care of city business on your own schedule, without a trip downtown or a wait on hold.
What We're Here to Do
Local government works best when it's easy to reach. Too often, the information residents need is scattered across paper forms, voicemail boxes, and office hours that don't fit a working day.
This website brings city services together in one place — clear instructions, online forms, and straight answers — so getting something done with the City of Riverbend takes minutes, not an afternoon. Every department, from Public Works to the Clerk's Office, keeps its information here current.
We're a small team, and we read what residents send us. If something on this site is unclear or out of date, tell us and we'll fix it.
