O
Quick Action Saves the Day
While driving down Bayshore
Blvd., Everett Tuten, an Irrigation
& Landscape Inspector with
PSL’s Public Works Department,
noticed some smoke in a median
and realized a fire was starting.
His quick thinking stopped it
from spreading and averted a
potentially hazardous situation!
He knew that there was irrigation
in the median and immediately
called the contractor to turn it on.
The fire was quickly extinguished.
Everett’s actions helped promote
the City’s strategic goal of being
safe, clean and beautiful into
action.
Big Discovery on PSL Blvd. Bridge
Dean Davis is one of our hard-working Keep Port St. Lucie Beautiful staff members in PSL’s
Public Works Department. He helps to keep the Port St. Lucie Boulevard Bridge looking
good. One afternoon, he noticed what looked like a wallet with its contents strewn all over
the roadway on the bridge. He carefully collected everything he could. Using a doctor’s
appointment card that was among the items, he tracked down the grateful owners. Thanks
to Dean for living out the City of PSL’s organizational values of ethics, accountability and
exceptional customer service!
