Body
BACKGROUND
Instituted in 1960 by the American Public Work Association (APWA), National Public Works Week is a time to celebrate the thousands of men and women in North America who provide and maintain the infrastructure and services collectively known as public works, especially the twenty-seven exceptional Public Works staff here in the City of San Pablo.
Public works professionals help keep communities strong by providing an infrastructure of services in transportation, water, wastewater and stormwater treatment, public buildings and spaces, parks and grounds, emergency management and first response, solid waste, and right-of-way management. They are what make communities great places to live and work. Please recognize the small army - very small with a total of 27 maintenance workers, analysts, clerks, inspectors and engineers - who provide this collection of services to the City of San Pablo’s businesses and residents.
