The City of Sterling maintains its fleet of
vehicles and other heavy equipment at the City Shop located on the
Public Works grounds. Over 30 vehicles, including police cars,
fire trucks, and dump trucks are maintained and service here.
 In
2001, the finishing touches were put on the new City Shop building.
The new, nearly 15,000 square foot building allows us to service larger
vehicles inside, to store more vehicles indoors over the winter, and
allows more room for indoor storage. Prior to the new building,
many vehicles were stored outside through the winter and were
accumulating excess wear and tear from the elements.
Further, the building was designed with input from both professional
engineers and the employees of the Public Works Division, thus ensuring
a building that offers the most in functionality and efficient design.
The new City Shop allows for large vehicles to be
lifted as much as 6 feet off the ground for service.
The new shop allows for increased storage. Here,
a row
of trucks and their plows wait for the inevitable snowfall. |
