Four of the Town of Cutler Bay’s projects were honored with awards from the American Public Works Association (APWA), South Florida Branch. These prestigious accolades were presented during the APWA Awards Luncheon on Thursday, Mar. 21, at Doral’s Cultural Arts Center.
“It is certainly an honor to be recognized by our municipal colleagues who reviewed the town’s submittals and awarded these prestigious awards,” said Rafael Casals, town manager. “These awards underscore our Public Works director Alfredo Quintero and Stormwater Utility manager Yenier Vega’s commitment to delivering high-quality infrastructure projects that benefit our community.”
Among the recognized projects are:
● Saga Bay 1.5 Sub-Basin Water Quality Improvement Project Award: APWA South Florida Branch Consultant of the Year recipient, SRS Engineering Inc.

The Saga Bay 1.5 Sub-Basin Water Quality Improvement Project, executed by SRS Engineering Inc. and RG Underground Engineering, Inc., aimed at enhancing drainage for approximately 85 residential homes.
