THE FACILITIES BUREAU HAS THE RESPONSIBILITY TO MAINTAIN THE FACILITIES AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF MAINTENANCE POSSIBLE.

The Bureau continually evaluates the process by which vendors and contractors are hired to ensure that the best practices of maintenance of all the facilities and infrastructure systems are being addressed. The safety of the general public, employees, vendors and contractors is the top priority.


The Facilities Bureau operates under the Department of Development Services, overseen by Director Matt Nazar.
