Worley comes to Vancouver from Pasco, where he led the public works department since 2018.
“We welcome Steve’s leadership to Public Works at the start of the new year. He brings an innovative approach to project and program management and a collaborative style to lead our talented Public Works team,” Vancouver City Manager Eric Holmes said in a press release.
