Their efforts are essential to the ensuring the quality of life that we enjoy each <br />day. With that in mind, National Public Works Week is an opportunity show appreciation for the <br />work that they do day in and day out, rain, shine or snow. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Brian L. Erickson, P.E. Director of Public Works/City Engineer <br />
