National Public Works Week, sponsored by the American Public Works Association (APWA), is a way to energize and educate the public on the importance of public works to their daily lives: planning, building, managing and operating at the heart of their local communities to improve everyday quality of life. This year’s theme, “People, Purpose, Presence,” highlights three cornerstone ideals that motivate public works professionals to serve in their communities every day.

We want to thank our Public Works team for always being prepared to respond to natural disasters and emergencies. This team plays a vital role in keeping our community safe and running smoothly. We truly appreciate everything this group does, both seen and unseen. Learn more about Goleta Public Works here: www.cityofgoleta.org/your-city/public-works.

The Public Works team will also be acknowledged with a proclamation at the May 20 City Council meeting.
