Town Administrator Martha Semmes recognized Stuart Will, of IES, for "going above and beyond the call of duty with regard to emergencies that have occurred due to the ongoing VDOT paving project."

VDOT, she said, did not tell the Town that street levels would change, which necessitated the installation of special risers on critical utility valve boxes.

Mr. Will, Semmes said, "an admirable job."

Town Planner Will Moore thanked Facilities & Maintenance Supervisor Tim Cole for this work during the VDOT paving project. The work, Moore noted, "disrupted garbage collections and Mr Cole was and is working hard to assure that trash is collected on time, including personally moving cans to accessible locations."
