We Are Public Works

Whether we are building new projects like a new police administration facility and detention center, or simply filling potholes, Public Works staff serve as the stewards of Santa Ana's infrastructure. We are responsible for building and maintaining all public streets, storm drains, sewers, and water facilities. In addition, we coordinate the collection and recycling of refuse, sweep public streets, landscape the public right-of-way, trim trees, and remove graffiti. We ensure that the community enjoys high quality drinking water and is able to travel around the City efficiently through the use of our state-of-the-art traffic management system. We also work with neighborhood associations to resolve speeding, parking, and traffic problems and with developers to ensure that City development standards are met.

The Agency is organized into four divisions and employs a professional staff of 205 full-time and 47 part-time employees.
