There is no doubt they look great however, he has painted over my number identifications. I am not sure who is sponsoring this, but this forum is not how I should be finding out that things are being done to the fire protection systems in the community. I will now need to allocate time and resources to ensure our numbers are once again visible and that no paint is compromising the threads of the caps so they open without lots of extra effort in the event of an emergency. Thanks Henry for posting.

Randy Devine, according to the July 11, 2011 Selectboard Minutes is directing him:
"Cody Lewis has been hired by Randy to do some projects as Paul is busy with haying. Randy has been having Cody paint the hydrants and flushing units and weeding and trimming around the lagoons. He has started manhole inspections with four complete on Hunt Street. He will put the information in a database. The water use summary was reviewed for June with an average daily demand. A tree fell on the fence at the water control building with an estimated damage repair of $575.00. We will submit a bill to VLCT. Alternative water source sites were again discussed."

Cody's done a great job as the maintenance worker in the park last summer and this summer. He's a great hard worker.

The hydrants do look nice; however, Chief is right, this is the kind of thing that needs to be umm...communicated with those in charge. :-)

Communication is the key -- looks like some improvement is required -- Hiring Managers need to talk to the Subject Matter Experts ....
