The City of Blythe is seeking a progressive leader to plan, direct, manage and oversee the operation of the Public Works Department including: public works construction, City and traffic engineering, street, parks, facility and fleet maintenance and the production and distribution of potable water and the treatment and disposal of wastewater. The ideal candidate has five years of increasingly responsible public works experience including two years of management and administrative responsibility, a Bachelors degree from an accredited college or university with major course work in engineering, public administration or a related field. Registration as a Professional Civil Engineer in the State of California is desirable but not required.

The City of Blythe is hoping for a complete, fair and accurate count of all Blythe residents during the 2020 Census. Large portions of Riverside County (including Blythe) have historically been hard to count or are anticipated to be less likely to respond. During the 2010 Census an average of 27.3% of Blythe residents were not counted across 7census tracts in the City. In each tract the number of people not counted ranged from 23% up to 31.5%. This left more than a quarter of our residents unaccounted for. For every resident that is not counted, money is left on the table for our state and local governments. Results of the Census are also used to reapportion the House of Representatives and determine how many seats each state should get. Please help our City be accurately represented and get the funding allocations we deserve by being counted in the 2020 Census. For more information on the Census, please click on the links below.
