Many public works agencies are facing flat or reduced
budgets. This is compounded by cost increases for labor,
equipment and materials. Aging infrastructure (roads,
utilities, parks), increased public expectations and
accountability, and higher use of public facilities
are creating considerable challenges for public works
managers.
There is a solution.
