As a result, Public Works <br />Water Resources Division implemented a comprehensive water program to educate the <br />community and promote water conservation. Although this program was implemented to address <br />the Drought State Emergency declared by Governor Brown in 2014, the Public Works Water <br />Resources Division staff continues to promote water conservation through this program which <br />uses promotional items and'materials to educate the public. Promotional items are also used for <br />community events sponsored by various City departments and agencies including Economic <br />Development, Parks Recreation and Community Services and Police. In addition, the Personnel <br />Department purchases years of service awards that are presented to employees in recognition of <br />their service and contributions to the City at select council meetings as well as products used as <br />incentives and prizes for participants in the Commuter Services Program. <br />22C-1 <br />
