| The Service Center, located at 948 Newman Road, is a
facility where the City's fleet of vehicles and equipment are serviced or
repaired as needed. |
| The
Service Center is responsible for the repair and maintenance of all City
equipment. The facility improves public service and contributes to
the efficient operation of the City by allowing all supplies and equipment
to be maintained in one location. |
| Vehicles that are used throughout the City, such as
trolleys, police cars, fire trucks, backhoes and trucks, each receive a
preventive maintenance check on a regular basis. The preventive
maintenance check includes oil and filter changes, lubrication and any
other service required to keep the city's 175 plus vehicles and equipment
running and in top notch condition. A washing facility is also
available at the Center which helps maintain the neat appearance of city
vehicles. |
| Established in 1977, the Service Center is a department
that is in constant motion and where personnel are highly skilled
individuals whose abilities in the area of mechanics are put to the test
on a daily basis. A computerized inventory parts system allows for
control and accounting of each part used and results in a cost savings to
the City. |
To help with the efforts of recycling in
the City of Gatlinburg, the Service Center also maintains an area where
citizens can come to drop off their newspapers, cardboard and used motor
oil. |
| The City of Gatlinburg is fortunate to have a facility such
as the Service Center and to have knowledgeable personnel who takes pride
in their work and in their City. |
