MAYOR’S MESSAGE
A New Era for Murray City Public Works
One of the most important things a city can do is invest in the infrastructure that supports daily life in our community. That’s why I’m excited to share with you an important project that’s just broke ground: our brand-new Public Works campus. If you’ve ever wondered who keeps our streets clear, our water running, and our neighborhoods clean, you’re thinking of Public Works. This department quietly supports the everyday services we often take for granted. From maintaining roads and traffic signs to managing storm drains, wastewater systems, and the city fleet, Public Works is the backbone of Murray’s infrastructure. They make sure our city runs smoothly and safely, rain or shine. Simply put, if it keeps the city moving, Public Works is probably behind it.
This new Public Works facility represents a renewed commitment to the future of city services in Murray.
Built for Today and Tomorrow
Our current Public Works administration building simply doesn’t meet the needs of a today’s modern city. The facility lacks ADA compliance, operates inefficiently by today’s standards, and fails to deliver the quality of service that Murray residents deserve. After a thorough cost analysis, we determined that building new facilities was not only comparable in cost to remodeling but would allow us to create a more efficient and thoughtfully designed space.
The new building will be fully ADA compliant, featuring a single-level design that is accessible to all residents and staff. Energy efficiency is a top priority, with high-efficiency HVAC systems, LED lighting with motion detection, and materials selected for long-term durability and low maintenance.
A Better Experience for Everyone
When construction wraps in 2027, residents will see a more welcoming, user-friendly, and organized facility. Public restrooms, comfortable waiting areas, and clearly marked signage will ensure that your visits to Public Works are easy and efficient.
Inside, our city staff will have the tools and space they need to serve you best. The new layout supports collaboration while respecting privacy, with workspaces designed to encourage productivity and flexibility. Fleet Services will receive long-needed upgrades, including a hydraulic mechanic pit, an overhead crane, and a dedicated waiting area for employees.
Our hardworking Wastewater, Storm Water, and Painting–Sign Divisions will also get their own new facility, complete with needed storage for equipment and secure, dedicated locker rooms for staff.
Designed for Function, Built to Last
This project was shaped by the people who know our operations best: our Public Works staff. Their feedback was crucial to the design and prioritized function and safety in each part of the new campus. We believe the community will feel these positive impacts every time they interact with our team.
Designed by Galloway & Company and constructed by Big-D Construction, the new facility will have a modern industrial look: functional, durable, and practical for the daily work it will support. Outdoor enhancements like new landscaping and updated signage will create a cleaner, more attractive campus for Murray.
Looking Ahead
Construction began June 25, 2025, with completion expected by September 2027. While there’s much work ahead, I’m incredibly proud of the planning that’s gone into this project and grateful to everyone who helped shape its vision.
As always, thank you for your continued support. I look forward to seeing how this new facility helps us serve you better for years to come.
—Mayor
