Facilities Management Department is proud of having a very positive work environment, with great supportive leadership at every level. Facilities Management’s mission is to provide quality spaces that are safe and ready to support Pierce County business each day. Providing well managed, safe and clean buildings, and doing that in the most environmentally-responsible and economically-sound way, sets the stage for all other county employees to be able to do their jobs.

Facilities Management was not idle during the pandemic.
