Dear Public Works Colleague:
After a particularly long and difficult winter, it’s finally time to think warm thoughts and make plans for
the 2015 New England Chapter American Public Works Association’s Summer Conference on beautiful

You are cordially invited to this three-day event that will bring together Public Works colleagues
throughout New England and offers Continuing Education Units (CEUs), relevant discussions on topics
such as pavement preservation and legislative issues, presentations from peers on rail trails, traffic and
transportation concerns, and stormwater management and permit compliance, among others, and a
number of other special activities and networking opportunities. A detailed agenda and schedule for
the conference is enclosed along with an event calendar which lists all key times and activities. For more
