Grounds Services
Mission Statement
The Grounds Services Team of the Facilities Department strives for an attractive campus appearance that creates a positive and lasting impression while preserving and enhancing the integrity of the natural landscape for students, faculty and staff at Palomar College.
It is our responsibility, in the support of the College’s mission, to provide a beautifully groomed and safe environment consisting of landscape design, installation and maintenance; herbaceous bed planting and maintenance; ornamental lawn renovation and maintenance; recreational and intercollegiate field preparation; tree renovation and maintenance, and the care of the Arboretum. Our tasks are accomplished with a workforce that is knowledgeable, dedicated and committed to delivering quality, customer service.
The Palomar College Recycling Program is dedicated to making recycling as easy and convenient as possible for the campus community. By recycling we can protect our planet’s natural resources, improve our health and wellbeing, and even help to stimulate the economy by creating jobs. Our vision is to turn Palomar College into a zero waste campus. Zero waste means eliminating materials used on our campus that end up in the garbage and diverting our “waste” stream into the recycling bin and into products that can be used again and again. We are working toward this goal by implementing the 4 R’s—Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Rot.
All requests for services, including recycling, are requested through the Facilities Office.
