In accordance with the tradition of the

American Public Works Association

(APWA), those who work in professions

that provide and maintain public

facilities and services will be honored

during National Public Works Week,

May 21-27, 2017. Recognitions

scheduled for the week will celebrate

the contributions of public works

professionals as well as the communities

they serve.

We value our communities and the

role public works professionals play

in keeping them safe and functioning

smoothly, reports the American Public

Works Association, sponsor of National

Public Works Week.

Our objective is designed to increase

public awareness of their contributions

as well as to enlighten the public about

the duties, practices, and goals of public

works professionals. Public works

professionals include those who manage

water, sewer, public transportation,

and refuse removal systems as well as

those responsible for maintaining public

buildings and grounds.

They are, in short, the people who

maintain and improve the systems and

services vital to a community’s health,

safety and comfort.

Local activities scheduled for National

Public Works Week include recognitions,

resolutions and/or proclamations at

many Central Valley public agencies.

Additionally, the Central California

Chapter has delivered a commemorative

poster to over 50 public agencies ranging

from Kern County to Stanislaus County.
