Mission

The mission of the Facilities and Grounds Committee of the APWA is to provide APWA members with the resources for exchanging and developing ideas, information, skills, knowledge, and technologies for the operation, management, and maintenance of public buildings, grounds, and parks. The committee also recommends and advances APWA policies and positions concerning public facilities and grounds issues.

A Message from the Chair

About the Committee

Often times when citizens are asked to define public infrastructure, they mention roads, bridges, water, wastewater and schools. The majority of the general public, to include our community leaders, forget that our public buildings are also a part of America’s failing infrastructure.

The Committee fulfills its mission by providing facility and grounds maintenance resources you'll find in the APWA Store, the Resource Center, the APWA Reporter magazine, the Click Listen and Learn programs, and sessions at APWA national conferences.
