City receives two ASCE awards

 

Tehachapi Public Works Director Ryan Montgomery proudly displayed the City's ASCE awards.

The City of Tehachapi received recognition from the Southern San Joaquin Branch of the American Society of Civil Engineers for two of their projects. Freedom Plaza engineered by AECOM received the 2017 Outstanding Small Project award. Located at the corner of Tehachapi Blvd. and Curry St., the Plaza contains five monuments representing each of the branches of the US military. It is also the home of the new Tehachapi Visitor Center.

The ASCE also recognized the Snyder Well Intertie Project as the 2017 Outstanding Water Project. The project, also engineered by AECOM, brought back to life a well that had been shut down years ago for its non-potable water. The project co-sponsored by the City of Tehachapi, the Tehachapi Cummings County Water District and the Tehachapi Unified School District created a water line that would supply the School District with less potable water to bring back the brown playing fields, and stadium turf at Monroe High School and Warrior Stadium.
