The duties of the Public Works Department are as varied as the employees themselves. They may be seen anywhere around town at any given time. They could be picking up limbs, mowing grass, cleaning curbs, painting fire hydrants, shoveling snow, or many other things too numerous to mention. These men are also volunteer firemen, which helps our town to maintain a high ISO rating since we always have someone available to respond to fire or emergency calls.
