PROCLAMATION
National Public Works Week, May 17-23, 2026
Public works professionals focus on infrastructure, facilities, and services that are of
vital importance to sustainable and resilient communities and to public health, high
quality of life, and well-being of the people of Columbia Heights.
These infrastructure, facilities, and services could not be provided without the
dedicated efforts of public works professionals, who are engineers, managers, and
employees at all levels of government and the private sector, who are responsible for
rebuilding, improving, and protecting our nation's transportation, water supply, water
treatment and solid waste systems, public buildings, and other structures and facilities
essential for our citizens.
It is in the public interest for the citizens, civic leaders, and children in Columbia
Heights to gain knowledge of and maintain an ongoing interest and understanding of
the importance of public works and public works programs in their respective
communities.
National Public Works Week, now in its 66th year and sponsored by the American
Public Works Association recognizes the importance of these public servants across
America.
Now, therefore, I, Amada Mdrquez Simula, Mayor of Columbia Heights, proudly
proclaim May 18-24, 2026, National Public Works Week in in the City of Columbia
Heights, County of Anoka, State of Minnesota, U.S.A.
