PUBLIC WORKS 19
Morrisville’s Public Works Department received written
confirmation of Full Accreditation by the American Public
Works Association (APWA) on December 22, 2017.
Morrisville joins the Town of Garner as one of two
accredited Public Works agencies in North Carolina, and
one of only 136 in the country.
Out of 337 identified practices, 334 received a full com-
pliance designation, while the remaining four received
substantial compliance. To maintain accreditation, the
department will engage in reaccreditation every four
years with a formal “check in” every two years.

DEVELOPMENT SERVICES LOBBY RENNOVATION
After
The lobby of the Public Safety Municipal Services Building,
primarily used to access the Development Services departments
of Planning, Inspections and Engineering, was renovated this
quarter. The changes were made to improve functionality and
public interaction.
The old lobby (left) included a wall and a low counter. The recon-
figured space (below) includes a lower ceiling and open counter.
The color scheme was changed significantly with paint, flooring,
trim, and lighting to create a more welcoming environment.
