The City broke ground on a new fleet facility in April, marking a major step forward in strengthening essential services for residents. A fleet assessment completed in 2019 identified significant space and staffing challenges in the current garage, which can no longer support larger equipment or the growing number of electrified vehicles.
To meet these needs, in 2022 the City purchased property next to the current Public Works building to construct a modern fleet garage that will feature larger bay areas, updated lifts, natural lighting, additional service bays and improved locker rooms and rest areas. These upgrades will make room for more technicians, enhance safety and improve core service levels for residents.
The project also reserves more than 21,000 square feet of roof space for a future solar installation. Completion is expected by August 2027.
