Purpose
Facility Maintenance provides a variety of building services, which include heating, ventilation and air conditioning
(HVAC); plumbing; electrical; carpentry remodeling; landscape maintenance; and custodial services for numerous
County owned or leased facilities. Many County facilities operate 24 hours per day, seven days a week, while other
facilities are typical five days per week operations. Facilities are located throughout the County in Eureka, Arcata, Fortuna, Garberville, and Willow Creek as well as other outlying areas. Funding reductions, retirements and turnover in the maintenance and custodial staff have challenged the Division’s ability to provide sufficient service to the County’s facilities.
