Asset Management Fact Sheets
Staff and the CAMP Outreach Committee are developing a set of fact sheets to give a voice to the City’s infrastructure. The facts sheets are designed to be informative and relevant to community members by distilling a complicated subject matter into an easy-to-read format. Starting this week, the City will introduce the Building fact sheet through a series of fun and engaging social media posts. Additional fact sheets are being developed and will be released in a serial progression with a new release approximately every three weeks. Each fact sheet and supporting documents will be available on the program website at www.livermoreassets.net/documents.
