I`m my neck of the woods ...yup they do. They also own/lease all the excavators/backhoes/12 dump trucks /pickups/and small tools that they have to find work for year round or loose the equipment to the bank.

My city owns 2 dump trucks 1 back hoe

My city is a maint crew who maintains the infrastructure not build it

Common sense will tell you that a fiscally responsible city will hire out the big jobs so they don`t have the overhead of all the big ticket item equipment.
Plus the cost to maintain them ... think for a min
