The Public Services Administration Division provides leadership and direction to operational divisions including Buildings Management, Solid Waste Management, Streets Management, Storm Water Services and Parks & Urban Forestry Services.  The Buildings Division is responsible for the maintenance of City owned facilities.  The Solid Waste Management Division (an enterprise fund) provides refuse collection, recycling operations, yard waste collection, bulky item and carrion pick up, special services and a downtown collection program.  The Streets Management Division is responsible for the coordination, maintenance and construction of the City’s streets and sidewalks.  The Stormwater Services Division (an enterprise fund) is responsible for the maintenance of the City’s drainage system, administration of the Stormwater ordinance and public outreach and education.  The Parks & Urban Forestry Services Division is responsible for the maintenance of the City’s public parks, alleys, lots and right of ways.  This division is also responsible for tree management, the City’s greenhouse and beautification efforts throughout the City of Wilmington.

The administration division is responsive to the Deputy City Manager where the Director must routinely interact with management from other departments to stay abreast of issues impacting the City of Wilmington and the community.  As a part of this effort, communication is often initiated with individual customers and neighborhood groups to aid in the development of neighborhood improvement programs.  With a focus on communication, the Director currently coordinates with a member of citizen advisory boards such as the Legion Stadium Commission, Riverwatch and the Tree Commission.
