While eyes frequently look up to the $2 billion in offices, hotels and apartments sprouting in West Palm Beach, the city itself completes dozens of projects at ground level every year that arguably have as much impact on everyday citizens. These range from boat ramps to bicycle lanes, road widenings, playgrounds and other park improvements, water main replacements and culvert repairs. According to Kevin Volbrecht, West Palm’s director of engineering services, this fiscal year the city has completed 26 projects, valued at $21.5 million. Another 34 projects, costing $22.3 million, are scheduled for completion completed by October.
