Building a Strong Foundation with Our Buildings and Grounds Crew

Behind the scenes of a thriving community lies a dedicated team – the Richland Center Buildings and Grounds crew!

We're your partners in ensuring the city's infrastructure remains safe, functional, and aesthetically pleasing. From community centers to recreational facilities and essential services, we take pride in keeping these spaces in top condition.

Here's what keeps our crew busy:

  • Maintaining Your Community Hubs: We ensure the Community & Senior Center, a vital gathering place for all ages, is well-maintained and welcoming.
  • Upkeep of Recreational Facilities: Whether you're enjoying a game at the ball diamonds, a refreshing dip in the pool, or a challenging disc golf course adventure, our team keeps these spaces clean, safe, and ready for use. This includes maintaining 12 park shelters, North Park Pond, tennis & pickleball courts, soccer fields, and the Woodman Happy Tails Dog Park.
  • Ensuring Essential Infrastructure: Our crew maintains the city's airport and cemeteries with respect and functionality in mind. We also manage various City properties, contributing to a well-maintained environment.

Our skilled team tackles a variety of tasks, including:

  • Preventative Maintenance: We proactively address potential issues before they escalate, ensuring the longevity of our facilities.
  • Repairs and Upkeep: From fixing leaky faucets to addressing minor electrical issues, we keep things running smoothly.
  • Cleaning and Sanitation: We maintain a clean and hygienic environment across all our buildings and grounds.
  • Seasonal Maintenance: From snow removal in winter to preparing sports fields for spring, we adapt our work to the changing seasons.
