VENTURA — The Ventura County Public Works Agency (VCPWA) has recently received full accreditation from the American Public Works Association (APWA). This accreditation formally verifies and recognizes that the Ventura County Public Works Agency has demonstrated that it operates as a cohesive team and does so to nationally recognized, best-management practices.
Officially awarded on November 3, 2026, the accreditation marks a significant milestone following three years of dedicated work by employees across the Agency’s five departments: Central Services, Engineering Services, Roads & Transportation, Water & Sanitation, and Watershed Protection. VCPWA joins a select group of approximately 230 accredited public works organizations nationwide, representing less than 1% of public works agencies across the country, and is only the seventh county public works agency in California to achieve this distinction.
