On March 4, 2025, The Fayetteville Public Works Commission (PWC) celebrated 120 years of dedicated service to the residents of Fayetteville, Cumberland County and surrounding communities.
Throughout PWC’s 120-year history, their mission has remained clear: to provide safe, reliable, and affordable services to the Fayetteville, North Carolina area. This is accomplished by the hard work and dedication of their employees, past and present, who have contributed to their success over the generations.
“We are celebrating 120 years of serving our community with pride and excellence,” said Timothy Bryant, CEO/General Manager of Fayetteville PWC in a press release. “We are making a big deal about it because it is a big deal! We remain focused on the future and continuing to provide reliable services for the next 120 years to come.”
PWC has grown alongside the community, positively influencing its development and offering support in many ways. PWC contributions range from supporting local businesses and community events to collaborating with non-profits. Over the past seven years alone, PWC has received more than 140 awards for its performance. While proud of these awards and recognitions, PWC takes the most pride in being a world-class local utility committed to providing the best quality of service for customers now and in the future.
