The Buxton Public Works Department consists of seven full time employees. Director Thomas Kennie has worked for the town for fifteen years and served as Director for the past four. Charles O’Neil, Jr, Michael Pulsoni, Anthony Lock, Michael Roberts, and Michael Crockett are a hardworking, dedicated crew who take pride in their work and strive for high standards in safety for our town and the town’s people. I would like to welcome our new Town Mechanic, Tim Martin to our team. Tim has shown great mechanic skills and helps with snow removal. Our part time and on-call crew, Matt Jervis, Andy Townsend, and Rowland Turgeon assist in maintaining the roads. These positions are extremely important in supporting the crew during the winter snow season. This year has been exceptionally busy with projects updating old cross pipes, ditching town roads, a major ditching and culvert replacement on Deering Drive, along with maintaining the parking lots at the Municipal Complex. We also acquired a 2016 freight liner plow truck to increase our fleet to nine trucks. This coming year we have a full list of roads scheduled for ditching, tree removal and culvert replacement, this is continuous maintenance needed to keep the roads in shape for paving. I want to thank our crew and assistant, Brianna Freeman for their part in helping the department run efficiently. I appreciate the excellent working relationship with all town departments and look forward to working with them on future projects.
