Mark your calendars!! September 6 is officially Local Works Day!! Have you thanked a local government employee today for all of their hard work?

1. . . . is a day to bring attention to the hard work that local
government employees do for millions of Floridians each day.
It’s about the public works that are easy to take for granted,
but which knit our communities together.

Law enforcement, first responders, public parks, running water, electricity,
roads and bridges... they’re part of ordinary life. . . and that’s extraordinary.
It can be easy to take things for granted.
Flip the switch, and the lights come on.
Take the trash to the curb, and its gone the next day.
Call 911, and someone answers.
We’re fortunate to live in a place where things just...work.
It’s not like that everywhere in the world.
But in Florida, we enjoy a quality of life like no other.
MILLIONS OF FLORIDIANS DEPEND ON
LOCAL GOVERNMENT SERVICES
EVERY DAY.
