Mission

The department's mission is to enhance the quality of life for Morrisville residents by ensuring citizen safety, maintaining the infrastructure, supporting Town departments, along with providing quality essential municipal services in an efficient manner.

Accreditation

The Morrisville Public Works Department was awarded the American Public Works Association (APWA) Accredited Agency designation for the second time in July 2022.

The APWA Accreditation program recognizes public works agencies that go beyond the requirements of the management practices established nationally in the Public Works industry. 

The Town of Morrisville was the 136th agency in North America and the second agency in North Carolina to earn the APWA accreditation status in December 2018.

Public Works Staff are currently preparing for our 3rd reaccreditation, which is scheduled in December 2025.
