This week, we're shining the spotlight on Kristian and Ramon, two dedicated members of our Sanitation Department!

From collecting trash and recycling to helping residents with service requests, they work hard every day to keep our community clean and running smoothly. But beyond their important roles, they're people just like you and me, with their own interests, hobbies, and favorite teams.

Take a moment to get to know them a little better in today's Employee Spotlight and see if you have something in common with these amazing members of the McAllen Public Works family! 👏♻️🚛
