The Public Works Department is located at 207 Fairground Avenue on the south end of Wayne.  The current facility was constructed in 1996 when the department was relocated to allow for the expansion of the power plant.  The 19,000 square feet building contains office space, an equipment storage area, and shop bays.  Vehicles and equipment needed for street and park maintenance activities are located in this facility and the entire city fleet of fifty-five vehicles is serviced in the building’s mechanic shop.  A metal fabrication shop is utilized for construction of park signs and playground equipment as well as maintenance items for various city departments.  A wood shop is used to repair and manufacture picnic tables, playground equipment, and other items.  The diversity of the facility allows the employees to complete multiple tasks and provide efficient service to the public.
