Public Works Capital Projects
We Maintain Excellence
The Public Works Department provides many of the services and programs that residents of the community enjoy. Services include, building, planning, engineering, operations and water resource recovery. Many of the functions occur without much notice due to the highly qualified and hard working employees in the department. We boast that “we maintain excellence”. Excellence is a distinct quality that is observed, not simply stated, whether it’s maintaining quality parks and trails or treating wastewater to the highest levels.
Building, Planning and Engineering staffs are excellent resources to the community whether it be a first time home owner or longtime resident with questions. We have attempted to streamline processes understanding that our community has come to expect the highest level of service
All department employees value the trust and positive relationships throughout the La Center community. Our appreciation is extended to the folks that use our services and we will continue to strive to maintain excellence.
Capital Projects
The Public Works Department will be working on several capital improvement projects that will preserve our streets, increase safety and keep the city moving towards economic diversity. In order to help keep everyone informed we have a capital projects information webpage. The public works department will do our best to keep this page up to date, so everyone will know what to expect.
