Community Services

The Community Services Department is made up of the Facilities, Childcare, and Rental Housing Divisions. With a goal of supporting local residents who make up our workforce, the department provides residents with safe, well-maintained, and sustainable housing opportunities. The team strives to introduce and foster additional services to enhance the well-being of the individuals within our community, including assistance programs and quality childcare services.
