For the Reporter
Residents don’t often think about the public works employees who make their city run so smoothly.
It’s taken for granted that water will flow from the tap, toilets will flush, potholes will be filled and trees will be trimmed. But once a year, the city of Kent encourages residents to reflect on the comfort and quality of life that public works employees help to provide.
Residents learned about these services firsthand by attending a free event Monday at the ShoWare Center. The event showcased projects and programs, celebrated achievements and introduced students to careers in the trades.
