Spotlight on the Department of Public Works

The Buzz went on site last week, to see exactly what DPW is all about. In addition to plowing and keeping our streets in shape and cleared, they’re responsible for keeping our drinking water clean and running, they process our trash and recyclables, and maintain our parks and fields. What goes on behind the doors of our brand new DPW facility? What is DPW doing to prepare for winter? What’s so important about the Baldwin Pond Water Treatment Facility? And what’s so special about the Transfer Station?

We’ll find out from Tom Holder, Director of the Department of Public Works and Joe Doucette, Superintendent of Highway and Parks. They’ll also talk about the “private roads” issue, and what makes plowing them so controversial.

The Buzz airs on Sundays and Tuesdays, at 10am and 6pm on your Public cable channel (Comcast Ch. 8; Verizon Ch. 37).  And online on-demand anytime at WayCAM.tv/buzz
