operation of public works systems and programs such as water, streets and highways,
public buildings and solid waste collection; and
Whereas, the health, safety and comfort of this community greatly depends on these
facilities and services; and
Whereas, the quality and effectiveness of these facilities, as well as their planning, design,
and construction, is vitally dependent upon the efforts and skill of public works officials;
and
Whereas, the efficiency of the qualified and dedicated personnel who staff public works
departments is materially influenced by the people's attitude and understanding of the
importance of the work they perform.
